The luck of the Irish. ☘
The Dallas Mavs St. Patrick’s Parade & Festival is celebrating its 38th year of being a time honored Dallas tradition for thousands to enjoy family friendly pageantry against the backdrop of food, spirits and community. It is the largest St. Patrick’s Day parade in the Southwest. Don’t miss the festivities this Saturday at 11am starting at Greenville and Blackwell. This parade has grown to be one of the largest St. Patrick’s Parades in the country, with over 125,000 attendees and more than 100 parade entries along the 2 mile route.
As presenting sponsor, the Dallas Mavericks will once again have an indelible parade presence with two floats, the Mavs Express bus, Mavs Dancers, Mascots and ManiAACs. The Mavs Corner will be located at the CVS corner of Lovers Lane and Greenville and will feature food trucks, exhibitors, a Mavs Retail Shop and Mavericks’ entertainers.
The first recorded St. Patrick’s Day parade was staged in 1762 in New York City – this was the result of early Irish American settlers celebrating the St. Patrick’s feast day. Today, across the United States, millions of Americans observe their cultural identity and history by enjoying St. Patrick’s Day with processions and fellowship.
