AES Indy 500 Parade Registration NOW OPEN
|
"The NCI parade group of 125 participants is organized by the Nationalities Council of Indiana (NCI). The photos introduce us to a riot of vibrant color, exotic and iconic national festive fashions, and the joyful spirit of participants from many cultures and over 40 nationalities. The participants in their spectacular outfits and enthusiastic, radiant spirit add to the Iconic Moments in Indy, the theme of this year's (2024) parade. We are thrilled to see the NCI unit as an annual feature of the nationally renowned festival parade for the last 14 years." -KP Singh, May 28, 2024 |
