The St Patrick’s Festival parade in Galway on March 17th, starts at 10: 30 am and runs through Galway city centre for over 1 hour. The theme for the parade this year is ‘Olympics 2024’ and will see up to 3000 participants taking part in what will be a colourful spectacle throughout the city centre. The event aims to celebrate Galway’s diverse culture and talent through an inclusive programme of events. Expect many additional events to be held throughout the city over the bank holiday weekend.
