The Love Parade (German: Loveparade) was a popular electronic dance music festival and parade that originated in 1989 in West Berlin, Germany. It was held in Germany annually between 1989 and 2003, and then from 2006 to 2008. The 2004 and 2005 events in Berlin and the 2009 event in Bochum were cancelled.
On 24 July 2010, at least 19 people were killed in a stampede in a tunnel at the Love Parade, with at least 350 others injured. As a consequence of this, the organiser of the festival announced that no further Love Parades would be held. They also said that the Love Festival was permanently cancelled.
