We hope you had a great long weekend, Victoria!
So many wonderful sights around the city this weekend, and if you had the pleasure of catching this year’s Victoria Day Parade, then you already know it didn’t disappoint.
According to the Greater Victoria Festival Society, there were a whopping total of 88 parade entries this year—which is about 2,700 participants!
Always one to draw a crowd, an estimated 80,000 people came to revel at this spectacle and cheer on new or returning floats.
In case you missed it (or simply want a recap), here’s 13 photos and videos shared from the Victoria Day Parade this long weekend:
Many thanks to everyone who organized and took part in the Victoria Day parade! #CFBEsqSupports!
