Popular Tipperary St Patrick’s Day parade launched

The Chairperson of the Thurles St Patrick’s Day Parade committee Johnny Kenehan is delighted to announce that the Thurles St Patrick’s Day Parade 2024 will take place on Sunday, March 17, 2024 at 2.30pm in Liberty Square.

This year’s theme is Youth: Our hopes for the Future.

Our special guest will reflect this theme and are to be announced at a later stage. The continued success of the parade over the years is based largely on the generous sponsorship of local businesses, groups and Tipperary County Council.

The quality of entries and effort by clubs and organisations also ensure this level of success, and we look forward to viewing their presentations this year.

All clubs, organisations, groups, individuals and businesses are invited to enter, and entry forms can be sourced from the Thurles Tourist Office Slievenamon Road, Thurles or email hello@thurlestouristoffice. ie.

We look forward to a variety of entries and a display of local talent and artistic endeavour in their efforts to showcase their ideas and achievements and reflect their interpretation of our youth and our hope for the future.
