Need a quiet picnic for lunch somewhere that is not on the parade route. Any parks or riverside patches that stay open today.

Aim for green pockets and river edges away from Dalada staging, not the route kerb. Buy food mid-morning and leave before afternoon barriers tighten.

If you already did a short foothills walk, picnic on the return slope instead of dragging bags into town centre.

No cool picnic gear? A vegetarian hotel lunch buffet is the indoor backup.
