This photo is taken from close to the entrance of the pier and it looks southwest over the Carpet Gardens and the adjoining streets. Eastbourne’s Carnival normally takes place on the last Bank Holiday in May but the date was changed this year to the 4th of June to coincide with the celebrations of Her Majesty The Queen’s Platinum Jubilee. The theme of Eastbourne’s Carnival was the Platinum Jubilee. The route of the Carnival was from Western Lawns to Princes Park with the photo showing a scene on Grand Parade in the vicinity of the Burlington Hotel. Eastbourne’s Carnival is the largest such event in the South East with approximately 25,000 spectators.
