The parade was ending when I got there and I only got to see the end bits. You can read my last year's post on the parade here, sorry I couldn't bring you the whole parade this year.
But I did get to see a little bit at the end like these flamenco and spanish dancers and some other groups but right at the end was the Chinese Lion Dance troupes with Dai Loong, the biggest dragon in Australia!
Dai Loong is so big that it requires 200 people to participate in many facets of the parade. To stage a procession, there are two lion dance troupes; a musical percussion group; carriers of traditional weapons, mythical creatures, traditional banners, flower baskets – all who have particular significance – and of course, around 100 dragon legs.
Here's Dai Loong, I couldn't take a picture of the whole length of it's body but you should watch the video I posted below to see how long and big it is. Enjoy!
