The Street Parade is the most attended technoparade in the world,^[1] since the end of Love Parade 2010. It takes place in Zurich, Switzerland, and is the largest annual event in the city. Officially a demonstration for freedom, love and tolerance attended by up to one million people, it proceeds along the side of Lake Zurich on the second Saturday of August.

The first Street Parade (the English name is used in German) took place on 5 September 1992, initiated by student Marek Krynski and officially called the Demonstration for Love, Peace, Liberty, Generosity and Tolerance (German: Demonstration für Liebe, Frieden, Freiheit, Grosszügigkeit und Toleranz). About 1,000 took part in dancing behind two Lovemobiles.^[2]^[3]
