The Maldon Easter Parade

The 142nd Maldon Easter Parade was held today and The Maldon Easter Fair must be one of Australia’s longest running Easter festivals.

The parade was a success again this year thanks to the hard work of the Maldon Easter Fair organisers.

Many imaginative, fun and though provoking floats and entries entertained the street which was packed with people watching.

Here are some photos that were shared to Instagram of the parade.
