More than 170,000 people attended the yearly event.
From the music to the energy, the vibe was nothing but acceptance
āYou canāt catch too many Prides like this everywhere else,ā said attendee Austin Reed. āThereās LA Pride, New York Pride, but thereās not like Miami Pride.ā
The festival took place right on the sands of South Beach.
This yearās theme was Embrace Your Journey.
It was a labor of love and inclusiveness, from Delta MainStage to the beachside clubs and a lot of rainbows, members of the LGBTQIA community and allies brought the party.
āWith such a tough political climate that we have right now, itās still good to be able to be out here to celebrate love, celebrate LGBTQIA,ā said Reed.
