Student marching bands, impressive baton twirlers and military bands take to the streets in Quito's Old Quarter on 31 October every year to celebrate the Ecuadorian Coat of Arms Day. Dancing and music make this a lively street party.

The Ecuadorian coat of arms depicts an oval-shaped country landscape on top of which sits a condor from the Ecuadorian Andes.
