The St Patrick’s Day Parade has been held amidst the streets of Brisbane city for the past 30 years, flooding the inner-city district with a colourful convoy of more than 80 floats and displays representing Irish culture that provide free community-oriented entertainment for all ages.

2018’s St Patrick’s Day Parade attracted approximately 30,000 onlookers into Brisbane’s CBD to watch the event so come in early and get your spot. 2019’s parade will take place along the same route starting and ending outside the Botanic Gardens on Alice Street in the CBD.

We’ll be celebrating into the day and after the parade in the wonderful Botanic Gardens so stick around for some live music and tasty food from the 30 stalls offering food, drinks and crafts from 8:00am so the craic will continue on after the parade!
