With pop music pumping and rainbow flags flying high and proud, the Whitehorse Pride parade danced its way through downtown on June 8.
Approximately 300 colourfully-decorated and smiling people gathered at the top of Main Street for the seventh year of the local march.
The mass walked, roller-skated, skateboarded, and biked down Main Street to Second Avenue and then followed the river to Shipyards Park where a barbecue and more fun games awaited.
A dance concluded the festivities Saturday night, effectively ending the “24 Hours of Gaylight” events, which began June 4 with a film night and ended June 9 with a paddle in the Yukon River.
Pride 2019 celebrations marked 50 years since homosexuality was decriminalized in Canada.
