The seller mentions Wilshire Blvd. but I'm not so sure.

Hoss identified it as definitely Wilshire. I was going to say that perhaps it was an Easter Parade or something. There's a whole Jack Benny episode about going down to Wilshire to see the Easter Parade. And, no, Easter isn't in May, but back in the days of film processing the date stamped on the photos was when they were processed. I remember in our family some photos outside in the snow in winter are stamped "June."

ETA: Well, I just looked up the eBay link and the seller has two other photos of this parade and the other two don't say "Easter" to me. There's one with a band and people holding "oars."
