A selection of images from the Rotterdam street parade during the Zomercarnaval. The highlight of the annual festival (Rotterdam Unlimited) is the tropical themed street parade. Countless communities from Rotterdam prepare for months, decorating costumes for the colorful parade. The result is a family friendly parade through 6km of Rotterdam streets that typically attracts over 2000 participants.
