After being held in the North-American Continent for the first time in Mexico (2002), in the fall of 2004 the Love Parade was held in [[San Francisco]]. They had held their inaugural Parade in September 2004 with 37,000 attending. The parade was held again in San Francisco in September 2005 as a rousing success drawing over 50–60,000 people. In 2006, the parade was held on 23 September and was renamed Love Fest because the Loveparade Berlin organization did not renew any of their worldwide licenses not already under contract so they could focus on their own event. 2009 was the biggest success of the parade now renamed [[Lovevolution]] with over 100,000 people.
