Healdsburg St. Patrick’s Day Parade
This event is expired.
Join us for a festive celebration of all things Irish at our Annual St. Patrick's Day Parade! March down Healdsburg Avenue, starting at Sanderson Ford (453 Healdsburg Ave), around the Plaza, and back.
Known as the “Biggest, Shortest Parade in the World,” the Healdsburg St. Patrick’s Day Parade was created by former B&B Lounge owner Bill Coleman. Legend has it that the early morning parade started with a small group of Healdsburg residents wishing to wake up the tourists in the nearby hotels, and each year more and more residents joined in the fun. Today, the parade sees hundreds of people of all ages dressed in festive green, and Healdsburg Community Services is proud to continue the legacy that Bill Coleman, the B&B Lounge, pioneered.
After, grab a chair, and celebrate St. Patrick's Day in Plaza Park with an afternoon of live music, Irish step dancing by the Shiloh Step Dancers, and fairy door-making crafts for children. Don’t miss this chance to put on your green and celebrate the best of Irish culture in Healdsburg.
