Every year, we welcome marching bands from all over the world to join us for the national St. Patrick's Day Parade in Dublin on March 17th!
Taking part in the iconic St. Patrick's Festival Parade in Dublin is a once in a lifetime experience. Where better to march and perform than at the home of St. Patrick!
St. Patrick's Festival is now accepting band applications for the St. Patrick's Day Parade on Wednesday 17th March 2027*.
*Please note that applications for the 2025 and 2026 parades in Dublin are now closed. Ireland has a multitude of parades happening nationwide on March 17th.
