The camera captures a group on a horse and carriage; a woman dressed as Queen Victoria; and various groups of children dressed in costumes. Costumes include dressing up as Indians; Red Cross volunteers and Australian Troops; Chinese women; and band members in ‘black face’. A small group of uniformed men with rifles march past the camera from left to right, followed by a band which marches past from right to left. A final group rides on a cannon pulled by a traction engine.
