St. Patrick’s Day Parade New York City

Go Green for St. Patty's Day! Celebrated in early spring, the St. Patrick's Day Parade takes over New York's 5th Ave., between 44th and 79th street. Floats, bagpipers, dancers, and more take to the streets in the thousands to celebrate the Patron Saint of Ireland-- with plenty of Irish music to set pace! The city itself erupts into celebration, with bars and pubs filled to the nines with people wearing green and orange. Whether you take to the outdoors to watch the parade as it passes by iconic New York locations, from Central Park to St. Patrick's Cathedral, or watch it from the television of a nearby bar or restaurant, you're sure to get swept up in the high-energy of the event.
