The 23rd annual Pride Parade took over the streets of downtown Spokane on Saturday, with thousands of people showing support for the LGBTQA community. Banners, cars, demonstrators, floats and people filled the streets with color and excitement.
The parade began on the corner of Northwest Falls Boulevard, traveled down Riverside, passed River Park Square and concluded between Howard and Wall at Riverfront Park. Celebrations did not stop after the marching, with post-parade festivities found throughout Riverfront Park.
