Follow the rainbow to Ocean City, Maryland on March 14th for the 41st Annual St. Patrick’s Day Parade! The parade begins promptly at 12:00 pm from 60th Street and heads south to the Judge's Stand on 44th Street.
Dress in your best green attire and bring your lawn chairs for a day of merriment in Ocean City. Be sure to arrive early for optimal parking and to secure your perfect viewing spot. Line your chairs curbside and watch the parade march down Coastal Highway. Celebrate with green beer and everything Irish during this town-favorite event.
Enjoy watching the decorated floats and vehicles pass by playing traditional Irish jigs as they pass on by. Listen to live music from local artists as they take their moving stage, as well as youth and adult marching units. See your favorite Ocean City businesses or non-profit organizations take center stage in their decorated vehicles, and even get a glimpse at local celebrities marching through!
After the parade is over, enjoy the rest of your day in Ocean City by heading over to the 45th Street Village shopping center for the Irish-American Festival! Enjoy Irish-inspired food and drinks, as well as raffles and overall fun as the town celebrates everything Irish. Listen to live music from Kevin O’Brennan and the Shoreline Band.
