The 50th anniversary Mid-South Pride parade rolled down Beale Street Saturday, after being rained out June 7. Photographer Brad Vest was present to capture the occasion.

About 3,000 people participated in the Beale Street event, with floats and marchers representing 110 local groups including businesses, performing arts organizations and nonprofits.
