On Sunday, ‘Pride Marches On’ at LA Pride’s 55th celebration in Hollywood

Hollywood Boulevard will be blanketed in rainbows this Sunday, June 8 at the 55th annual Los Angeles Pride Parade and Festival.

This year’s theme, “Pride Marches On,” will celebrate the “tenacity and resilience” of the LGBTQ+ community, organizers said.

The free LA Pride event has been put on by nonprofit Christopher Street West for over 50 years, and is the longest-running pride celebration in Southern California, organizers said.

“This year, LA Pride marks a pivotal moment for both the Los Angeles and LGBTQ+ communities,” said board president Gerald Garth. “Despite facing unimaginable challenges, our community has always emerged stronger.” • Participants and spectators of the L.A.
