LOS ANGELES, CA (April 26, 2024) – Christopher Street West Association (CSW), the 501(c)3 nonprofit that has produced the iconic LA Pride celebration for more than 50 years, announced today that global icon Ricky Martin will headline LA Pride in the Park, with additional artists to be unveiled.

“I am thrilled to be headlining LA Pride in the Park because it’s an incredible opportunity to celebrate love, diversity, and equality,” said Martin. “LA Pride is a testament to the power of community, the power of visibility, and the power of standing up for our rights.

We cannot wait to be ‘Livin’ La Vida Loca’ while beaming with Pride!”

 Ricky Martin is a multi-talented artist known for his accomplishments as a singer, songwriter, actor and author. He has won multiple GRAMMY® Awards and is considered one of the most influential superstars in history, often referred to as the “King of Latin Pop.” Throughout his nearly four-decade career, Martin brought Latin music and culture to the mainstream, paving the way for crossover talent.
