32nd Annual St. Patrick’s Day Parade

Held annually, the St. Patrick’s Day parade starts at Mile Post 11.5, at the intersection of Bladen Street and South Virginia Dare Trail and continues north to Admiral Street. What began as a way to break up the winter doldrums and to invigorate the community in preparation for the summer season, the parade has grown to include over one-hundred entrants and is watched by over eight thousand attendees thus making it the largest St. Patrick’s Parade in North Carolina!
