Dress to impress at the Sci Fi London Easter Parade and join other science fiction and fantasy fans for an alternative take on the American spring parade.
Easter tradition
It's a time honoured tradition to don your Sunday best and join the Easter Parade in the USA, but at the fancy dress parade along the South Bank you're unlikely to see much in the way of Easter bonnets, unless they form part of somebody's cosplay outfit. The Sci Fi London Easter Parade is embracing all things science fiction by inviting fans to dress as their favourite film, game, TV or literary character, so expect to see plenty of Klingons, Batman villains, Doctor Who incarnations and Warcraft characters taking part.
Science fiction special
Starting off at the BFI Southbank, the Sci Fi London Easter Parade winds its way along the South Bank and along the Thames, all the way to the London Film Museum. Leading the parade and setting the pace will be two Zombie Olympians, who will be championing the woefully under-represented zombie Olympic sports.
Look the part
Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy fans may turn up in a dressing gown and that all important towel, Star Wars junkies can go for Stormtrooper outfits, while Avatar fans might turn up plastered in blue bodypaint. Whether you're into The X Men, steampunk, Spider-Man, E.T, zombies, Alien or are a dedicated anime and manga cosplay fan, dress your best for the Sci Fi London Easter Parade and celebrate the 11th anniversary of the science fiction film festival in style.
The Sci Fi London Easter Parade starts outside the BFI on Sunday 29th April 2012. The parade lasts for around three hours. Admission is free. For more information and to register to take part in advance, click on the link below.
