St. Patrick’s Day is soon upon us and what better way to celebrate than watching a parade! Well, there’s actually getting to be on the float, but we can’t all be so lucky. Besides, I’m sure that the people riding on the floats wish they could be watching the whole thing, too! There are bound to be parades throughout the United States honoring the holiday, so we’ll focus on four major ports: Chicago, Boston, New York City and Dallas.
Take a look! Even if you cannot go to these parades in person, many of them are working with broadcasters to allow you to live stream the event, not to mention airing it on television. In addition, people lucky enough to go can enjoy other festivities in the areas, like a big holiday breakfast! Remember, if all else fails, remember to wear green. Even if you lock yourself in the house all day, the leprechauns will get you! Also, keep in mind that the times are based on each area’s respective time zones!
