A three-mile long procession of more than 6,000 performers wound through the streets of the Square Mile to introduce the 681st Lord Mayor of the City of London, Ian Luder.
A military flypast over Mansion House marked the beginning of the parade. Mr Luder was then carried, in the 251-year-old gold State Coach, to St Paul's Cathedral where he was blessed by the Dean of St Paul's.
More than 200 vehicles took part in the parade, including a Sherman tank from World War Two, vintage buses, two steamrollers, taxis, a fleet of Morris Minors and a horse-drawn Santa carriage.
