This year’s parade, was a particularly festive occasion, with participants decked out in green, white, and orange, and the streets lined with spectators waving Irish flags. The parade kicked off at 2pm, and did not disappoint.

One of the highlights of the parade was the appearance of the local schoolchildren, who had spent weeks practicing their dance routines and rehearsing their songs. They were a joy to watch, as they skipped and twirled down the street, singing traditional Irish tunes and waving to the crowds.

Overall, the St. Patrick’s Day parade in Clonakilty was a wonderful celebration of culture and community spirit. It brought together people of all ages and backgrounds, united in their love of this beautiful corner of Ireland. If you ever get the chance to experience it for yourself, don’t hesitate – it’s an experience you’ll never forget!
