The Dublin St. Patrick’s Day Parade Is Back For The First Time Since 2019

Looking for the best place to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day?

Look no further. Dublin was named one of the best cities to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day by Reader’s Digest and Afar, but you don’t have to take their word for it. You can head to Dublin this weekend to take part in festivities for yourself.

The celebration kicks off the weekend before St. Patrick’s Day, on Saturday, March 11. Get all of your green gear together and head to Sells Middle School bright and early for a pancake breakfast.

From 7-11 a.m., you can enjoy all-you-can-eat pancakes with green syrup, then you can head out to see the parade step off.

The parade includes all sorts of Irish-themed fun, from bagpipers and leprechauns to typical parade sights like floats, giant inflatables, and marching bands.

This is the first time that the parade has taken place since 2019, so crowds are expected to be large.
