One of the biggest pride events in the country, LA Pride attracts thousands to a what had typically been a two-day fest and parade in West Hollywood but is now located a bit to the east. The parade portion—featuring celebrity grand marshal and Emmy winner Jeff Hiller—will step off in Hollywood, where it’ll be accompanied by LA Pride Village, which will take over Hollywood Boulevard from Vine to Gower. The free street festival has taken the place of music fest L.A. Pride in the Park, formerly in Chinatown. Expect live music, food, drinks and shopping, plus celeb appearances and an LA Pride Ball presented by the iconic House of Ninja. The atmosphere is good-natured and raucous; local color is provided by divas, drag queens and DJs.
