The annual San Diego St. Patrick's Day Parade and Festival in San Diego, California, lives up to its reputation as being the largest Irish celebration west of the Mississippi.
The event’s main attraction is the parade, which features over 120 floats complete with marching bands, bagpipers, traditional Irish dance troupes, police and fire departments, clowns and dignitaries. The festival portion boasts two stages of live music, a beer garden and a ride-filled kids' zone.
After two years of no parade we are back! It's going to be an awesome event that you do not want to miss. Join the Irish Congress of Southern California as we host the 40th Annual St. Patrick's Day Parade and Festival in Balboa Park!
