The Dyngus Day Captial of The United States is right here in Buffalo, NY.

On April 6, Western New York will prove just exactly why they get to rightfully call themselves that.

Although Dyngus Day was celebrated in traditional Polish neighborhoods of Buffalo dating back to the 1870s, modern Dyngus Day in Buffalo had its start with the Chopin Singing Society. Judge Ann T. Mikoll and her late husband Theodore V. Mikoll held the first party at the Society's club rooms in the Buffalo Central Terminal. The Society left the East Side in the 1980s and moved to new club rooms in nearby Cheektowaga, where the festival attracted a new generation of revelers. In the past, the focus of Buffalo's Dyngus Day celebration has returned to the Historic Polonia District in the form of large parties at the Buffalo Central Terminal, St. Stanislaus - Bishop & Martyr Church, the Adam Mickiewicz Library and Dramatic Circle.
