A gala, where is it ?

We had a big celebration at my school in 1951 for the Festival of Britian

that would fit very well.

It could be 1940s - this photo looks like a similar event:

I started school in 1954 in Nottingham, England. When I was at infant school for two years, I remember that we had a parade around the school on Empire day and that everyone got dressed up. Those who were in brownies/ cubs wore their uniforms and others wore anything but school uniform. We had a large union jack leading the way.
For the coronation, street parties were held on many of the streets.

Thank you to all replying to my question, with interesting comments. Where the photo is taken remains a mystery.          Gragareth.

   Wish I could "recommend" that comment but just as long as it isn't the Geo Sq "victory parade"
