Charleston’s official St. Patrick’s Day Parade Committee

Charleston’s St. Patrick Day Parade Committee, Inc. is an independent 501 3c charitable corporation. For over twenty-five years, the Committee has organized the city’s parade, down King St. This family-friendly celebration of Irish and Irish American culture begins at St. Patrick’s Catholic Church on Radcliffe Street and ends at the Cathedral of St. John the Baptist on Broad St.

BY POLICE ORDER, ALL FLOATS MUST PROCEED PAST THE CATHEDRAL, PAST COLONIAL LAKE, AND TURN RIGHT ON ASHLEY AVE. BEFORE STOPPING AND OFF-LOADING

We’re all Irish on St. Patrick’s Day!
