On Saturday, April 12, people from all over the country will converge on Lummus Park (at Ocean Drive and 11 th Street) between 2 and 9 p.m. Of course, the Parade is only part of the exciting two-day event. (There's even a contest for the parade entry that best captures the spirit of Pride.) The parade will begin at noon and cover the length of Miami's hottest street - directly past this Ocean Drive Art Deco hotel - with a range of costumes and displays as diverse as the individuals, couples and families who are parading. This year, Gloria Estefan and Kenny Ortega will usher in the festivities as the Gay Pride Grand Marshals. Such is the happy circumstance for the stylish boutique hotel, Winter Haven, which is poised to catch every detail as the revelers strut and sashay down Ocean Avenue during the Miami Beach Gay Pride Parade on April 13, 2014.
And while plenty of people look forward to joining in, sometimes it's just as much fun to watch, especially when your hotel sits directly on the parade route. MIAMI BEACH, FL-(Marketwired - Apr 10, 2014) - Gay Pride parades rarely want for color or vivacity, especially in a city like Miami Beach.
