The Long Beach Pride Festival was canceled the day before it was scheduled to begin due to organizers' failure to submit required safety permit documentation on time. The city subsequently announced plans to hold a rescheduled pride festival following the last-minute cancellation, which sparked outrage among attendees despite a separate pride parade proceeding as planned.
