The parade was led and ended by a pipe band.
The leading band was Scottish Borders Pipe Band in their snowman costumes. Unfortunately I was unable to get any decent photos of them on the march but here are two shots of a few of the drummers waiting around while Santa Claus lights the Christmas Tree.

Black kilt on a float.
Close inspection of this photo will show that the kilt pleats are held in place with basting stitches.
