The Edinburgh Festival Cavalcade is a free public event where many of the performers from the Fringe Festival and Edinburgh Tattoo parade on floats and dress up in costumes which also includes community groups and marching bands. The Cavalcade parade this year featured many local community groups and began with the huge roaring noise of harley davidson motorbikes. This year's event is sponsored by the City of Edinburgh Council and the Scottish Sun.
The Edinburgh Festival Cavalcade 2008 started with the entire cast of thr 2008 Edinburgh Military Tattoo who were then followed by over three thousand performers from the Edinburgh Fringe Festival. The parade has traditionally always taken place on Princes Street, Edinburgh's most famous and second longest street, next to Leith Walk.
This year's Edinburgh Festival Cavlacade event featured drumming, brass music, band music, karate, samba sounds, some of the Fringe' top comedians and some familar tunes can be heard such as Colonel Bogey march and the Jurassic Park theme music.
