The Supreme Court has blocked the Cronulla Riots 10-year anniversary parade proposed to go ahead this weekend.

NSW Police and Sutherland Shire Council sought an injunction to prevent the "memorial parade" organised by Nicholas Folkes to take place on Saturday out of fear it would encourage racial hatred.

The march was to commemorate the 2005 riots that led to outbreaks of violence in the beach suburb's streets.

The court prohibited the march from taking place in a ruling this morning.

Mr Folkes, who started the Party for Freedom, said previously the march would go ahead despite any ban imposed by the court.

Described as a "patriotic Australian with political aspirations who is fiercely opposed to left wing ideologues", Mr Folkes asserted the rally was to be a celebration of Australian culture - not violence.

A separate racial vilification case is still to be heard by the Federal Court, launched by the council and Muslim leader Jamal Rifi.
