Picture special: Pirates and princesses on parade in Falkirk


The Easter event, organised by Falkirk Delivers, saw swashbucking pirates and pretty princesses of all ages meet in the High Street for a fun-filled afternoon – and the rain stayed off so everyone could enjoy themselves without getting damp.
On Saturday everything was shipshape as the activites started off in the Howgate shopping centre with Captain Barbarossa and his crew.

The spectacular parade, which saw an array of creative costumes, then left the bandstand at 3.30pm for the crowds to enjoy. Everyone who took part is now looking forward to next year’s swashbuckling adventure.
