Amsterdam Gay Pride remains one of the best celebrations of its kind around the globe and the world-famous Canal Parade is one of its memorable highlights.

Whatever floats your boat at Gay Pride
During the annual Canal Parade, lavishly decorated barges give the term ‘float’ a literal meaning. Participants on 80 vessels will soak up the Dutch sun and put on a show with their onboard DJs, show-stopping themes and plenty of smiles, aiming to get their particular message on equality across all the while, pleasing all spectators on the banks of the Prinsengracht and Amstel River.
