Families can expect to see some famous on-screen characters roaming through Memorial Park on Sunday.

Super Heroes is the theme of the 127th edition of Ladner May Days and organizers are using the occasion to add some additional special guests to the free entertainment line-up.

“Mostly, the Super Heroes theme comes with (Sunday’s) parade as it gives everyone some creativity to go with. But we are also using the opportunity to do a meet-and-greet on Sunday at the park with Spiderman, Tinkerbell and Moana,” said May Days chair Missy Thornton.

As for the parade, it will once again feature all kinds of entries, including community and school groups, dance teams, entertainers, local businesses and more.

“I wouldn’t say we have a capacity it’s really how big are the floats and groups to be able to fit everyone on the roads each year,” added Thornton. “But it’s definitely looking like another full parade this year which is great to see.”

The procession starts at noon on Delta Street near Trenant Street, heading south on Delta Street before turning left on 48th Avenue.

It will make a right on Elliott Street and then another right on 47th Avenue as it makes its way to the fairgrounds at Memorial Park.
