Last year, the city's gay pride parade was held at a stadium because police feared they could not protect marchers from attacks. The year before, an Orthodox man stabbed three people during a procession on the street.

Some may find themselves in Tel Aviv, which is about sixty miles away and has several popular gay bars and many weekly LGBT club nights. Still, loyal Shushan patrons will feel the loss.
