Join the Festivities at Glasgow's St. Patrick's Parade 🍀

St Patrick's Parade Glasgow<br /><br />St Patrick’s Day Parade takes place in Glasgow, from Blythswood Square to the Merchant City, as part of a family fun day celebrating the connection between Ireland and Glasgow.<br />The first St Patrick’s Day parade in the city in recent memory was led by All Ireland marching band winners St Roch’s from Royston. The route took in West George Street, Nelson Mandela Place, then George Square and down Montrose Street and Ingram Street to Candleriggs and Bell Street. The parade then joined a family fun day at Merchant Square.<br />Guests of honour at the event were Ceann Craige, a 2024 All Ireland Camogie Finalist, Jerry O’Donovan, the Consul General of Ireland, and Jacqueline McLaren, the Lord Provost of Glasgow. St Roch's Marching Band won the All-Ireland title at the Fleadh Cheoil na hÉireann in Wexford last year and led today’s parade. They are the first band from outside of Ireland to win the title.<br />
