St. Patrick’s Day
Call it civic pride, call it luck, but the people of Spokane have access to one of the best St. Patrick’s Day parades and parties. This March 17 is your chance to join the Spokane community in celebrating Irish culture as the town embraces all things Ireland.

St. Patrick’s Day Parade
Saturday Before St. Patrick’s Day
The centerpiece of Spokane’s celebration is the Annual St. Patrick’s Day Parade. The procession begins the Saturday before March 17th at 12 p.m. in downtown and will snake its way around Riverfront Park. Everyone is Irish for the day, so come out to watch the flurry of marching bagpipes, green galore, traditional Irish garb, shamrocks, and lively dancing. Be sure to arrive early to get a prime viewing spot, and remember, no drinking is allowed along the parade route or in the parade.
