The Street parade in Zurich is the most attended techno parade in Europe. It was first held in September 1992. Up to one million people take part in the dance festival. The main route of the parade runs along the waterfront of Lake Zurich.

The Zurich Street Parade is one of the most attended techno and dance music festivals in Europe, attracting over half a million visitors every year and with an energetic and fun atmosphere.

It’s one of the safest events of its kind, thanks in large part to a clear list of allowed and prohibited items.

Thousands of thousands of participants and spectators gather on the promenade of Lake Zurich and a procession of painted Love-mobiles with participants in inimitable costumes starts at 1 p.m. Then the main parties take place in the city (Utoquai, Opernhaus, Limmatquai, Burkliplatz, Rentenanstalt), as well as a festival of DJs. In the evening, the baton of the parade is taken over by the night clubs of the city, where the parties take place until dawn.
