BERLIN - More than 1.5 million people danced through the streets of the western German city of Dortmund at the annual Love Parade techno music festival.
Once a summer institution in Berlin, the parade - staged under the motto "Highway of Love" - moved last year to Germany's industrial Ruhr area.
A roughly two-kilometre main road was closed to allow brightly or scantily clad, mostly young people to dance to techno music blasted from 37 floats.
However, financial problems forced the cancellation of the increasingly commercialized event in 2004 and 2005.
The parade returned in 2006, attracting between 500,000 and 700,000 people.
