St Patrick’s Day Parade ready to wow

Published 3 weeks ago 12th March 2025 by Reporter

Preparations are entering their final stage for this years St Patricks Day Parade in Cashel, with most of the organisation done, but with organisers still calling for groups to consider entering the parade.

The resumption of the parade after being cancelled last year, is down to the hard work of the committee who are resolute in making the day one to remember for people in town and from the surrounding areas.
One of the big changes to the Parade is that it will take place on Sunday, 16th of March, rather than on the 17th.

This was done to encourage groups from outside Cashel to join in, and still allow them to participate in a second parade in their home town. It seems to have worked, with a large number of entries already signing up. It was also done to ensure that people who wanted to come into town, could do so, and also go to a parade in their own home town on Monday, 17th.

So the hope is that people will travel from Tipperary town, Cahir, Clonmel and all around West Tipperary, giving a boost both to the parades numbers, but also to the businesses in Cashel on the day.

The parade itself will begin at 2pm, and march along the traditional route of Ladyswell, Friar Street, the Green and Boherclough Street, before coming up Main Street past the viewing stand at Bank Place. It’s expected to take about an hour and a half.

But that won’t be the end of the afternoon, as the street will remain closed until half five, with live music being played from the viewing stand after the main parade finishes.

The only thing the organisers haven’t been able to organise yet, is the weather, but here’s hoping for some sunshine and a great day for all who join in the fun.
