Amsterdam’s canals glittered with music and color as more than a thousand people gathered to watch the city’s annual Pride boat parade.

The 80‑vessel flotilla moved in a vibrant display of costumes and flags, part of the WorldPride event that draws visitors worldwide.

Police presence increased, with motorboats policing the waterways in response to a recent tragic Pride attack in Berlin.

The celebration highlighted inclusion while also underscoring the need for security and community solidarity.
