Tel Aviv Pride is the time of the year when the city comes to life with vibrant colors, beautiful people and an atmosphere you cannot ignore.

This year the parade starts at 10 am on Friday, with a large fair and then takes you along the beautiful streets of Tel Aviv towards the city's Charles Clore beach where the famous beach party will be held. Last year there were 250,000 in attendance and the numbers grow each year. Tel Aviv Pride is an annual, week-long series of events in Tel Aviv that celebrate Israel's LGBT community life, scheduled during the second week of June, as part of the international observance of Gay Pride Month.

This year, Neil Patrick Harris is appointed the International Ambassador of the parade. In a statement to the press, the Tel Aviv Municipality said that "hundreds of thousands of people from Israel and around the world will descend on Tel Aviv for a nonstop week of parties, events, and shows that feature and celebrate the city’s vibrant LGBTQ community, culminating in a massive parade through the city streets."

"Tel Aviv’s Pride parade is the largest Pride event in Asia and the Middle East, and one of the largest parades in the world," the municipality added.
