The annual St. Joseph St. Patrick’s Day Parade returns on Saturday, March 14, running from 12:00 – 2:00 p.m.

The procession kicks off at the intersection of Frederick and Noyes, winding its way through the city to conclude at 8th and Felix. Spectators can look forward to a vibrant display of Irish music, festive floats, and a variety of entries all honoring Irish culture and tradition.

This year’s celebration is led by Grand Marshals The Dolan Clan. The parade carries a deep historical legacy, originally debuting in 1867 before being revitalized in 1986. Since 1997, the Ancient Order of Hibernians has spearheaded the organization of the event, ensuring that the spirit of the celebration continues to grow with the enthusiastic support of the local community.

In addition to the festivities, the Hibernians are continuing their partnership with the Second Harvest Food Bank to support local hunger relief efforts. Attendees are encouraged to look for donation buckets stationed at participating businesses along the parade route to contribute to this cause.
