Delray Beach St. Patrick’s Day Parade 2019
Since 1968, Delray Beach is the place to be to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day! Starting with Delray Beach’s St. Patrick’s Day Festival the night before, enjoy Irish Dancers, live music and food. The party continues the next day with the Delray Beach St. Patrick’s Festival and famous Delray Beach St. Patrick’s Day Parade at 2pm.
March 15, 2019: Festival 5pm to 10pm at Old School Square Park
March 16, 2019: Festival 11am – 7pm at Old School Square Park
Parade: Kicks Off at 2pm on Saturday, March 16
Arrive Early Although the parade starts at 2 p.m., Parade spectators start lining up along the parade route by noon. Many people bring folding chairs to use along the sidewalks to make the parade waiting/watching time more comfortable. Keep in mind, you can not sit on Atlantic Avenue street – as this area must be clear for vehicles and floats. The parade has become so popular, that it’s been extended 5 blocks West of Swinton Ave. to West 5th Ave. This is a prime spot to set up and watch the parade. Please use the downtown bypass routes (1st Street – North and South of Atlantic) to stay off Atlantic Ave. before, during, and after the parade.
- Alcohol Delray Beach has an ordinance prohibiting “open alcohol containers” on the sidewalks and in the street. This is a safety measure to protect our minors and our seniors. There will be vendors and, of course, many restaurants and bars that are open for purchasing beverages. The festival in Old School Square will also have plenty of festive beverages for all to enjoy
- Restrooms Area businesses reserve their restrooms for patrons. There will be additional portable restrooms located along the parade route as well as at Old School Square. Public restrooms are located on the north side of Atlantic Ave. near the beach and at the parking garage in Old School Square.
