- What Happens at NYC's Weirdest Party? | Gatherings
- Date posted
- 10 months ago
- Description
- For over 40 years, New York's most creative characters have been gathering in Coney Island to participate in the Mermaid Parade. There's no ethnic, religious, or political connection between participants, but locals call it the official opening of summer in the city.
In this episode of GATHERINGS, VICE host Jackson Garrett hitches a ride to Coney Island to find out what NYC's oddest tradition means to those who celebrate it.
They say we’ve never been lonelier, and society is circling the drain of toxic individualism. We are told nothing can bring us together, but some events are still worth coming together for. In our series GATHERINGS, we explore the communities and events that make people feel like they belong.
Special thanks to CitySoul.nyc and Larry Racioppo for assisting in the production of this video.

Beneath the violence, Spartan Bare Knuckle Fight Club aims to be a lifeline in difficult times. It was initially set up to prevent knife crime, allowing disputes to be settled before they escalate, with one condition: you shake hands after your fight and leave the argument in the pit.
Over seven years, Spartan has become a form of community and therapy for men battling addiction and poor mental health. We followed combatants like Phil Hammond into battle at Fight Fest—the biggest event of the year.

- The World’s First Cocaine Bar: Route 36
- Date posted

- Description
- VICE host Zach Shucklin goes in search of Route 36, the world’s only known ‘cocaine bar.’ Located in the mountains outside of the Bolivian capital La Paz, the notorious lounge bar promises high purity coke by the gram—served up on a silver platter, along with a delicious cocktail of the patron’s choice.
Along the way, Shucklin learns about the rich history of coca farming in Bolivia, and meets a local witch doctor—or ‘yatiri’—to explore the leaf’s cultural uses.
Route 36, which is open only to tourists, moves premises regularly to evade the local authorities. That said, its existence seems to be an open secret in La Paz, which leads you to suspect that, for it to remain in business, there may be an element of corruption at play.

- The Country Where Weed Is Legal One Day A Year | The War on Drugs

- Description
- In Nepal, cannabis isn’t just a plant—it’s sacred. Every year during Shiva Ratri, over a million devotees gather to honor Shiva, the god of creation, by lighting up at Kathmandu’s holiest temple. But outside of this one day a year, cannabis remains illegal—a law rooted in the US-led War on Drugs, which pressured Nepal to abandon its ancient traditions in the 1970s.

- Inside the thriving drug economy in the UK prison system
- Date posted
- 1 year ago
- Description
- Late in 2024, the Prime Minister of the UK Keir Starmer responded to a prison capacity crisis by sanctioning early release for more than 16,400 inmates across the country. While sections of the public and media jeered the government’s decision, painting the move as an easy let off for thousands of criminals convicted for an illicit buffet of varying offences, not all prisoners found life after incarceration to be a bed of roses.
In a new VICE documentary, we follow some of those freed by the early-release scheme, as they struggle to reintegrate with public life, reunite with old acquaintances, and try to stay away from old habits as their days turn into a tedious mission to put a roof over their heads and a spring in their step. They also give us the lowdown on the latest ingenious techniques for getting drugs into prison via drone and how to earn fast cash with the aid of just a few “I love yous” and a smartphone full of several dozen gullible strangers.
