Los Angeles Peace Parade

On Saturday, April 29, 2017, you are cordially invited to the 2017 Los Angeles Peace Parade in commemoration of the April 29, 25th Anniversary of the 1992 L.A. Civil Unrest.

It has been a long time process of healing and progress-making for the City of Los Angeles as a whole. We will gather together and unite to celebrate what makes Los Angeles a great place to live. Our motto is, "We are One." The Peace Parade promotes love, family, and unity.

REMEMBRANCE CEREMONY (10 AM)

This is the fourth time we will be hosting this event. This year we will start off with a Remembrance Ceremony. The Remembrance Ceremony will feature various speakers and entertainment.

PEACE PARADE (10:25 AM)

This will be immediately followed by the Peace Parade along Olympic Blvd.

We have partnered with community leaders, organizations, government, and the clergy. Once divided, now, "We are One", working together toward a common goal to make life better for all Angelinos.

It will be a pleasure to have you join us for this momentous celebration.
