Photos: Lansdale’s 72nd Annual Mardi Gras Parade

Lansdale held its 72nd annual Mardi Gras Parade on Saturday afternoon, with more than 100 entries providing sights and sounds for the more than 10,000 area residents who lined Main Street to celebrate the beginning of the holiday season.

The year’s theme was "Holiday Melodies,” leading to multiple floats and displays that focused on seasonal music. The parade also featured appearances from Optimus Prime and Bumblebee from the Transformers movie series, as well as the North Penn Marching Knights, area first responders, and local businesses and organizations.
