Von Steuben Day, German-American festival on Fifth Avenue, New York, United States.

The Von Steuben Day parade fills Fifth Avenue with marching bands, dancers, and participants wearing traditional German clothing and performing cultural presentations.

Baron Friedrich Wilhelm von Steuben trained the Continental Army during the American Revolutionary War, contributing to the victory against British forces.

Parade participants display German traditions through dirndls, lederhosen, music performances, and regional dances from different parts of Germany.

The parade route extends from 68th Street to 86th Street along Fifth Avenue, with celebrations occurring each third Saturday in September.

The cornflower serves as the official symbol of the German-American Steuben Parade, representing the connection between both nations.
