The Athletic Club Foundation 2022 40th Annual St. Patrick’s Day Parade Presented by the Hoosier Lottery is Thursday, March 17th at 11:30am. Normally, the festivities start at 9:00am on Parade morning with the Parade Tent and Block Party on North Street between Meridian and Pennsylvania. The street is blocked to vehicle traffic and there is food trucks, sponsor activations and a large heated tent in the American Legion Mall with a beer garden with live entertainment. The event is FREE and open to the public.

The Parade is made up of Irish themed floats and helium balloons, school marching bands, pipe and drum bands, Irish dancers, catholic schools, Irish organizations and local companies and non-profits with St. Patrick’s Day themes. We are always looking for Parade units that have entertainment value, use a St. Patrick’s theme and show originality & creativity. Acceptance and participation in the Parade is strictly subject to the discretion of the Parade Committee who reserves the right to reject any application for any reason. The Parade is limited in the number of units.
