- Story Text: For one afternoon, Tel Aviv was turned into one giant
party on Friday (October 1, 1999) as the Love Parade came to
town and took over the beachfront promenade.
Tel Aviv streets, usually congested with traffic, were
filled with people on Friday (October 1, 1999) as an estimated
200,000 people joined the annual "Love Parade" on the city's
beachfront promenade.
DJs from around the world flew into Israel to participate
and mix music on specially designed trucks and other vehicles.
Each truck was designed in a different theme with one theme
running through them all -- love.
Elan Ronen, organiser of the event, said: "The word has
spread out, and everybody wants to come to dance, to love, to
feel free and especially to love".
As the day grew warmer, youngsters cooled off by splashing
in fountains along the promenade and couples walked arm in arm.
