Organisers of the Pride March due to take place in Paris on June 27 weekend postponed the event after police ordered them to change the date to relieve pressure on emergency services during the heatwave. A popular music festival has also been cancelled, while public alcohol consumption has been temporarily banned. This comes as hospitals and emergency services are overwhelmed amid a historic heatwave.
