The City of Blacktown held the annual Fiesta Street Parade on the morning of May 28. It is the biggest community festival in western Sydney. Fifty-five groups participated in the celebration. The Falun Gong group was the first procession in the parade.

Falun Gong practitioners’ float carried a large model of the book Zhuan Falun, a golden lotus flower, and a group of practitioners demonstrating the exercises for the spectators. The waist drum troupe played to the music “Falun Dafa Is Good.” A report on the Falun Gong group's participation in the parade can be found at: http://clearwisdom.net/html/articles/2011/5/31/125652.html.

During the awards ceremony, a city government official announced that the Falun Gong group will be the lead procession again next year.
