BABYLON, NY — Babylon Village was filled with rainbow flags, music and celebration as the 7th Annual Babylon Pride Parade returned to Deer Park Avenue earlier this month.

The parade took place on Sunday, June 7, and featured colorful floats, marchers, performers and crowds gathered along the downtown route. The celebration, hosted by Babylon Pride, marked the event’s seventh year and continued what organizers described as a growing tradition of visibility, unity and community support.

Festivities also continued after the parade with afternoon celebrations at local businesses, including Mary Carroll’s
