Thousands of spectators lined Amsterdam's canals as the city hosted its annual Pride boat parade, with colorful vessels and performances filling the waterways to celebrate LGBTQ+ communities and Amsterdam's festive culture.
The boat parade planned for the opening ceremonies of the 2024 Paris Summer Olympics has been scaled back for logistical and security reasons, with the event now being invite-only and the number of attendees essentially cut in half. This decision was made to ensure safety and accountability for the largest open-air event in Olympic history. The boat parade has also caused issues with local booksellers, but organizers are still moving forward with the event despite concerns about its potential to be a lackluster spectacle.
