Miami Beach Gay Pride

After a highly successful event in 2009, the City of Miami Beach is gearing up for another historic Gay Pride Parade Festival and Expo set for Saturday, April 17 on Ocean Drive.

With award-winning actress Sharon Gless and army activist/Iraq veteran Lt. Dan Choi serving as Grand Marshals, crowds are expected to exceed 25,000; an amazing accomplishment according to Pride organizers for an event in its second year.

Pride Parade Highlights
The Pride Parade begins at noon at 5th Street on Ocean Drive, with a diverse range of festive floats and more than 1,000 people participating in the parade.  One of the most popular highlights of the parade is the Legacy Couples – 28 LGBT couples who have been in committed relationships for 20 years or more; George Volpe and Peter Santangelo have been together the longest, for 66 years.

Star Power will add to an EXTRAordinary Day OUT as award-winning actress Sharon Gless and activist/Iraq veteran Lt. Dan Choi serve as Grand Marshals for the 2nd Annual Miami Beach Gay Pride Parade on Saturday, April 17.
