Considered one of the largest St. Patrick’s Day parades in the country, the 61st Houston St. Patrick’s Day Parade will have a new route on March 12th at Noon with over 100 entries! The parade will conclude with an after party at Market Square Park!
The tapping of the GREEN keg happens at Lucky’s Pub, which is on the parade route! They have specials daily leading up to St. Patrick’s Day, including a Leprechaun Drop and a Scavenger Hunt, so check it out!
Know Before You Go
As with any parade, traffic is an issue. Arrive early to park close by, but plan to stay well after the end of the parade, or park further out and walk to the parade route, making it easier to leave when the parade is over. Beware of parking inside the parade route.
The parade is FREE, but you will probably need to pay for parking.
