Williamsburg's Feast of Our Lady of Mount Carmel runs twelve days each July around Havemeyer Street, built around the Dance of the Giglio, in which men lift and carry a five story tower and a boat through the neighborhood to live music. Italian immigrants started the feast in 1887, making it one of the oldest continuously run Italian American religious feasts in the country.
