"Elephant Parade" is a charity event featuring a parade of elephants painted or created by artists to earn money for protecting the elephants. Elephant Parade first launched in London in 2010 with 250 elephant statues on display, and these were then shown all in one place in Chelsea before the auction because they were very popular. You can see some of my photographs of the elephants around London and all together in my post "Parading Artistic Elephants in London". In 2013 and 2014, new elephants returned to the UK on a national tour of mainly shopping malls, and I saw them when they were in Uxbridge (UK National Elephant Parade 2013/2014). I've been waiting for them to return, and they announced at last minute that the elephants were returning to London for about a month.

The elephants will be on display until the 18th of July, and they are located at Sloane Square and Mayfair. They have been brought over from Elephant Parade India in order to gather support at the auctions to raise money for the elephants.
