Downtown Hollywood was adorned with rainbow colors and vibrant displays as the community came together for the 4th Annual My Hollywood Pride. Yesterday, streets were bustling with locals and visitors alike, gathering to celebrate the LGBTQ+ community and the centennial of Hollywood.
Attendees of the festival witnessed a variety of vendors, lively performances, and youth-centric activities, all encapsulated by this year's theme, "Keep it 100." In a statement obtained by 7News, Todd Delmay, the Chair of My Hollywood Pride Festival, reflected on the significance of the event, "Oh I’m very pleased with this turnout you know its very important in these moments, especially political moment, where it can feel very turbulent right now its so important to have moments like this to come together to celebrate as a community and kind of keep fired up for the fight."
The celebration was not only a nod to the history of Hollywood but was also an occasion for raising awareness and support for the rights and acknowledgment of the LGBTQ+ community. The event took place on the 1900 block of Hollywood Boulevard and served as a pivotal moment of inclusion and representation as advertised by the City of Hollywood's official Instagram post.
The 4th Annual My Hollywood Pride, held from 1–7 p.m., brought the community together for six hours of celebration and activism. The event was hosted by 7News anchor Craig Stevens, who served as the emcee.
