History of LA Pride
The first LA Pride kicked off in 1970 on the one-year anniversary of the Stonewall riots and quickly became an integral part of the West Coast gay liberation movement. Since that revolutionary event, LA Pride has swelled into a celebration that draws approximately 400,000 revelers annually, welcoming people of every race, religion, philosophical belief, immigration status, gender and sexual orientation.
