About
Greatest St. Patrick’s Day Parade in the nation!
We are excited to be back at it again for 2023. Join us downtown in St. Paul starting at noon on Friday, March 17th, 2023. The parade will begin at Rice Park and end at Mears Park, the original route walked in 1967.
Since 1967, the St. Patrick’s Association has been the organization behind the greatest Saint Patrick’s Day Parade in the nation, hosted in Saint Paul, Minnesota.
Not only does our 100% volunteer group sponsor and coordinate the parade each year, but we also strive to donate at least $10,000 annually to local charities.
Most of our planning and fundraising is done during the six weeks leading up to Saint Patrick’s Day. But, we have a year-round presence serving our community. Whether cleaning up a park on Earth Day, volunteering with the Ronald McDonald House, or spreading cheer during the summer parades, you will undoubtedly see us sporting our green throughout the Twin Cities!
And don’t forget you’re invited to the post-parade Ballpark Hooley (Presented by Guinness) starting at 1 pm at CHS Field.
