Berlin: The Love Parade Is Back |
 Berlin's famous Love Parade, a raucus celebration of techno music that last took place in 2003 (pictured), will return to the streets this summer. Here's some background info on the event from CNN story Berlin to Revive Love Parade:
The Parade began as a street party of some 200 people in a divided Germany in 1989, but expanded rapidly after the Berlin Wall collapsed.
It became a symbol for Berlin's hip image during the 1990s, with the number of attendees reaching as high as 1.5 million. But it waned in recent years before descending into virtual financial collapse two years ago.
The parade will take place in Berlin on July 15, 2006.
