The Palm Beaches recently issued the following announcement.
Everyone's Irish on St. Patrick's Day! You're invited to show off your green starting early, and continue with fun-filled excitement on Atlantic Avenue all day long. Proudly presented by the Delray Beach Firefighters and Paramedics Benevolent Fund, the Delray Beach St. Patrick's Day Festival will be a day of shenanigans that you can't miss.
St. Patrick's Day Parade & Festival
The Delray Beach St. Patrick's Day Festival will run from 12:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. on Saturday, March 12. This family-friendly festival is chock-full of live music, beer and cocktails, food trucks, arts and crafts vendors, games, raffles and kids activities. The best part, admission is free!
And don't leave before the parade starts rolling through town. The Delray Beach St. Patrick's Day Parade has been a South Florida tradition since 1968, and seems to get better every year. Featuring more than 70 entries including floats, community groups, marching bands, fire engines, motorcycles, United States Veterans and more, this year's parade will run from 12:00 p.m. to 2 p.m., running along Atlantic Avenue from the Intracoastal bridge to NW 5th Avenue.
