Fairytale characters ‘alive’

AN EXPLOSION OF COLOURS filled the streets of Bridgetown yesterday, during Courts 50th anniversary parade.

Standing shoulder to shoulder along the route from Queen’s Park to Courts headquarters on St George Street, hundreds had their eyes glued to the festively adorned floats, costumes and marching band.

It was a family affair for some, as young and old were out to celebrate with the furniture and retail giant.

The mesmerising floats which moved through City streets featured familiar characters like pirates, Frozen’s Elsa and Santa Claus.

The parade was led by the 50th anniversary float to commemorate Barbados’ Independence milestone next year.

After all the energetic dancing and pageantry, the evening ended with a display of fireworks behind the Courts branch.
