Raleigh St. Patrick's Day Parade

Downtown will come alive with Irish tradition as the 42nd Annual St. Patrick's Day Parade takes over the City of Oaks.  Raleigh’s parade is a celebration for all ethnic groups and cultures, to share in ‘being Irish for the day’. 

The parade kicks off at 10am with Dancers, Marching Bands, Skaters, dogs and much more! The parade starts at Hillsborough and Salisbury Streets, goes around the State Capitol building, turning south down Fayetteville Street to the end at Lenoir St.  The Parade Committee is very honored to have WRAL anchor and reporter, Jeff Hogan as the 2024 Grand Marshal.

Fun for all ages to see the many traditions of the Irish community in Raleigh!

Join us for the Official After Party at Hibernian Pub on Glenwood Ave., where the entertainment of dancers, live music and bagpipers continues.  Get your green on and join in the fun!
