Chigo hosted the first Gay Pri Para the Uned Stat on June 27, 1970. Here's a look back at how the annual event has evolved through the years. * gay parade chicago 2015 *

The para was was origally held River North before movg to Boystown (formerly known as “Gaytown” and “New Town”). The 1998 Gay Pri Para Photo: Terrence Jam/Chigo Tribune. While the first gay pri para had only a few hundred atten, last year's march drew one ln people to the route.

And while may strike some as odd to move the gay pri para out of Boystown, the event didn't actually start there.

When the "Gay Liberatn Movement" anized s first-ever march the cy 1970 on the anniversary of the Stonewall Rts, Boystown as you know didn't exist. Before divg , 's important to note that the gay muny Chigo took root long before Stonewall. ) But while Chigo would ntue to see gay activists rise to promence the g s, the first gay pri para wouldn't be until June 27, 1970.

Celebrate Chigo's betiful queer muny wh the Chigo Gay Pri Para, ftivals, LGBTQ+ parti and more. * gay parade chicago 2015 *

The Tribune ran a 75-word blurb about the event on the third page of s June 28 edn, notg that  end wh ftgoers circlg the Pisso statue the plaza and shoutg, "Gay power to gay people. After that, the para tend to follow the gay muny. The "gay liberatnists" leadg the charge numbered 300, acrdg to the Tribune.
