Night photograph of a festival procession with fireworks bursting in the dark sky above. Several large yellow umbrella-like canopies with fringed silver edging and red-and-yellow tops are raised on tall poles over the crowd. Blurred figures and heads fill the lower foreground, and bright blue-white stage or procession lights glow on the right beside a decorated float with red and pink drapery. No individual face is clearly identifiable; the blur leaves the a person candidate indeterminate.
