St. Patty’s Day Parade Start Time Changes in Saint Louis

The annual St. Patrick’s Day parades in downtown St. Louis and the St. Louis Dogtown neighborhood will see some changes to their schedules and start times in 2018 thanks to an overlap in parade dates. Traditionally, the Dogtown parade is held on St. Patrick’s Day while the downtown parade is held on a Saturday. Since St. Patrick’s Day lands on a Saturday this year, event officials have changed parade start times to help accommodate local public safety officials and residents who would like to attend both parades. Find additional parade information below.
