Crowd Climbs the Southside Battletrain at the MayDay Parade

The annual MayDay Parade proceeds through South Minneapolis in 2024, featuring the Southside Battletrain. This community-led procession, a tradition for over 50 years, is organized by In the Heart of the Beast Puppet and Mask Theatre and often highlights themes of social justice and environmentalism. Participants, including those on the distinctive Southside Battletrain float, marched along Bloomington Avenue before turning onto 34th Street. The parade culminates at Powderhorn Park, a significant gathering place for the community.
