Description

A film believed to have been taken by Rod Matheson featuring images from the Carnival of the Lake, which took place at Hokowhitu Lagoon during Anniversary Weekend 1963. Events included a pet parade, children's competitions, Highland dancing, and a boating and canoeing regatta. Some other highlights were decorated gondolas, an elephant race and performances by the stuntman Indana who demonstrated firewalking and escaped from a straitjacket while suspended upside down from a crane.

Film has no sound.
