St. Patrick’s Festival Parade
Join the craic-filled crowds that line the streets for the famous St. Patrick’s Day Parade. This year the theme is “Imagine if…”, inspired by the imagination of Ireland’s youth as they look towards the future. This futuristic theme is the final instalment of the creative “past, present & future” trilogy which began in 2014. The parade begins at 12pm at Parnell Square, before touring up O’Connell Street, down Westmoreland Street, Dame Street and Lord Edward Street. Passing Christ Church, the procession of pageantry will come to an end after St. Patrick’s Cathedral.
