Happy St Patrick’s Day

 

Updated : Mar 17, 2009

Met Éireann predicting a dry and bright St Patrick’s Day, with sunny spells for most of the country.

The largest parade is in Dublin and will begin at 12 noon from Parnell Square. The theme is “The Sky is the Limit”, and more than 2,000 performers will take part including Irish street theatre companies, ceremonial groups and marching bands from the US, Canada, Germany, Italy and Ireland. A GAA pageant, "Monumental Moments", will lead the parade to mark the GAA’s 125th anniversary. GAA stars Brian Dooher, Henry Shefflin, Angela Walsh and Caitríona Foley will act as the joint grand marshals. GAA commentator Micheál Ó Muircheartaigh will provide the commentary.

“Cosmic Chaos” is the theme of this year’s festivities in Cork and organisers have teamed up with Blackrock Castle Observatory to celebrate the UN International Year of Astronomy. Nasa astronaut Dan Tani will lead the parade, which will begin at 1pm at the South Mall. City Hall will host an exhibition Capture the Cosmos, as part of the festivities and the new boardwalk along the river Lee will host a number of events, including the Barry’s Tea food market, presented by Cork City Council, from 10am to 5pm.

The Limerick “Go Green” parade will begin at noon from Sarsfield Barracks and will be led by children’s TV presenter Emma O’Driscoll.

In Galway, the parade, “A Celebration of the Sea”, will start at 12.30pm at Lower Dominick Street.

The St Patrick’s Day carnival procession in Belfast, with the theme “Legends, Myths and Stories”, will leave City Hall at noon.

Up to 70 other local parades will be taking place around the country, from Ardee to Wicklow town so everyone get out there and enjoy being Irish!

VeryHappyPig is going to have my very own parade on the farm, the chickens are insisting on being grand marshals though!
