Parade, Party, & Plenty of Green: Celebrating St. Patrick’s Day in Charlotte! 🍀

March 15, 2025 In Uptown Charlotte

 

The Queen City's beloved St. Patrick’s Day Parade is back this Saturday, March 15th, from 11:00 AM to 1:00 PM! Kicking off at North Tryon and 9th Street in Uptown Charlotte, the parade will feature vibrant floats, energetic marching bands, and talented Irish dancers. The celebration continues with Charlotte’s Going Green Festival, where you can enjoy live Irish music, Celtic arts and crafts, delicious food, and a variety of vendors.

 

Charlotte's St. Patrick's Day Parade tradition began in 1996 with a small group of people, accompanied by a bagpiper, walking down Tryon Street in Uptown Charlotte to mark the day. Since 1996, it has grown into an all-day extravaganza when Charlotteans can enjoy all things Irish. In past years, as many as 80,000 people attended Charlotte's St. Patrick's Day Parade.

 

 

Celebrating St. Patrick's Day in Charlotte, North Carolina will be an all-day affair this Saturday for Greater Charlotte residents. And you don't have to be of Irish heritage to enjoy the celebrations when all of Charlotte will be going green. The Going Green Festival will run from 10:00 AM till 6:00 PM on South Tryon Street in Charlotte's Uptown, between Stonewall Street and 3rd Street. The event is free and family friendly with a Celtic Zone set up for the young ones.

So sad that I missed another treat in Charlotte, but if the same number attend as last year, it is sure to be wild party

Jeffrey DiMuria 321.223.6253 Waves Realty hi Jeff... you know where of you speak! I always loved the St Patrick's Day parade down Fifth Avenue. At one time I lived at the corner of Fifth and 86 Street and the parade would turn down 86 Street towards Second and First Avenues. Didn't have to go far to catch a glimpse.

Thanks for sharing this exciting scoop about the St. Patrick’s Day festivities in Charlotte, Nina Hollander, Broker! It sounds like it's going to be a blast. Your enthusiasm really shines through! 🍀

Lew Corcoran hi Lew... this is one of Charlotte's favorite parades (along with the Thanksgiving Day parade). The weather will be nice so that means more people will come out.

Hi Nina- this makes me miss the parades I attended in Delray Beach. I'll bet there will be a big attendance this Saturday. Hope there are lots of bagpipes!!!

Kathy Streib hi Kathy... I know how you feel. I still miss the St Patrick's Day Parade in NY City after all the years. I would expect a big attendance... weather will be nice. Irish make up almost 8.5% of Charlotte's population and that doesn't include the entire region.

Hello Nina Hollander, Broker the St. Patrick's Day Parade & Festival in Charlotte, on Saturday March 15, 2025 is a great fun event to attend. Have fun and enjoy the parade.

John Pusa hi John... crowded venues like this are not quite my thing these days as I'm still recovering from my hip replacements. Maybe next year.

I don't know that I have been to a St. Patrick's Day parade, but it appears that everyone is having a lot of fun!

Brian England good morning, Brian... of all the parades I've seen in my life and especially in NY City which has tons of parades down Fifth Avenue, the St Patrick's Day parade is always the most fun.

Hello Nina - the spirit of St Patrick's Day revelry hasn't connected with me.  I hope all who enjoy the holiday have a good and safe time.  ☘

Michael Jacobs good morning, Michael... can't say I partake in lots of revelry on St Patrick's Day, myself, but I always do participate in St Patrick Day lunch at my office where everyone brings green food.

Nina Hollander, Broker the Irish Queen:) I can't remember the last day that I attended a parade. I know many people do and I am happy for them. Keep recovering from your surgery and maybe you can attend next year🍀

Katina Hargrove 352-551-0308 hi Katina... I kind of like the idea of being the Irish Queen (even if I don't have a drop of Irish blood in me 😉)!
