The 30th anniversary Long Island Pride March has been postponed indefinitely due to coronavirus.
The pride event was set for June 14 at Jones Beach, which is now a drive-thru testing site.
Newsday reports the event's organizer, David Kilmnick, says he’ll hold a “virtual Pride” that Sunday and hopes to reschedule the celebration for later in the summer.
The parade moved from Long Beach to Jones Beach following a dispute with the city about billing.
Right now, New York City's pride march is still scheduled for June 28.
