The Pulaski Day Parade is a parade held annually since 1937 on Fifth Avenue in New York City to commemorate Casimir Pulaski, a Polish hero of the American Revolutionary War.

It is held on the first Sunday of October and closely coincides with the October 11th General Pulaski Memorial Day, a national observance of his death at the Siege of Savannah.

Its founder was Francis J. Wazeter, president of the Downstate New York division of the Polish American Congress.

[citation needed] It is one of the oldest ethnic parades in NYC.
