There is NO Event Parking!
Street parking is going to be limited to non-existent. Parking on Ocean Blvd. is prohibited along the pride parade route and setup area (Alamitos to Redondo) and the near by streets will be full as well. We HIGHLY recommend arriving EARLY to look for parking further away and having ample time to walk down to Bixby park and Ocean Blvd. or using public transportation, ride share services or bikes and scooters.

The 5k runners go down the ramp and turn left and run over Belmont pier towards Rosie’s dog beach and back
