The 40th Annual Kingdom Day Parade had been set for January 18, but its organizers have announced that the parade will be postponed to focus on “the safety and well-being of Los Angeles residents amid ongoing wildfire recovery efforts.”
In a prepared statement, the King Day Committee said the postponement was backed by community leaders and Mayor Karen Bass’ office.
