The annual Greater Hastings Blossom Festival through the main street of Hastings. Heavily decorated floats include the Watties float with a decorated giant peach can and princess, cowboys with horse and wagons, a Ford Zephyr covered in blossoms and a Scandinavian float. The parade also includes pipe bands and marching girls.

Two young women dressed in mid-calf white, full gathered- waisted dresses stroll amongst the blossom trees of an orchard.
