Ahead of Sunday’s LA Pride Parade in Hollywood, the Los Angeles Police Department Friday issued a traffic advisory for the area of the event, warning motorists to avoid select streets to prevent travel delays.
According to the LAPD, the following street closures will be in effect from 4 a.m. to 4 p.m Sunday:

Paula Abdul will serve as “Icon Grand Marshal,” and other notable participants will be “Celebrity Grand Marshal” Mark Indelicato of “Ugly Betty” and “Hacks” and “Community Grand Marshal” Sir Lady Java.
The parade will step off at Hollywood and Cahuenga boulevards, moving west on Hollywood, south on Highland Avenue, east on Sunset Boulevard back to Cahuenga.
Following the parade, Pride Village will be open on Hollywood Boulevard, featuring sponsor tents, beverages, carnival attractions, vendors and performances.
There’s another Pride parade? We just had one on S.M. Blvd!
Good Grief
