LONDON, Jan. 2 (Xinhua) -- Hundreds of performers return to a scaled-down New Year's Day parade in London.
This year's event was limited to 600 spectators who had to buy tickets. The scaled-back parade was streamed online for people unable to get tickets.
Performers took to the stage at Waterloo Place in central London, rather than parading along the usual West End route between Piccadilly and Whitehall.
