The Main Event!

The parade starts at 16:00 and will last approx. 1 hour. It’s very much a traditional small town Irish parade that is very family-friendly and consists of many local clubs, groups & businesses ranging from the local sports clubs to dance and performing arts groups.
However given Celbridge’s close proximity to Dublin and our very welcoming and friendly atmosphere, our historic and picturesque town attracts a number of international marching bands, which having participated in the main Dublin parade, make the short journey to Celbridge to participate in our local parade.
So when you attend the Celbridge St. Patrick’s Day parade you really do get the best of both worlds. You get to experience real Irish hospitality while enjoying a traditional parade with the added bonus of getting a much better view of some of the best bands from the main Dublin parade.
In addition to this Celbridge Community Council has once again this year hired in a number of colourful and exciting floats from the amazing Artastic production company who also supply floats & costumes to the Dublin parade.
