This is Kansas City's grandest single-day event, a spectacle that brings together tens of thousands of spectators in a shared celebration of St. Patrick's Day and our rich Irish heritage.
This parade is more than just a procession; it's a vibrant, family-friendly extravaganza designed to delight everyone, from the youngest attendees to the young at heart. Our mission? To envelop you in the warmth and joy of a community coming together, offering a safe, entertaining, and unforgettable experience for all.
A Stroll Down Memory Lane:
It all started in 1973, with a spark of inspiration among friends in Hogerty’s Cocktail Lounge. What began as "the world's shortest and worst parade" has transformed into a beloved tradition, a testament to Kansas City's spirit and its deep-rooted Irish culture. From quirky beginnings with green-painted calves and makeshift floats to a grand celebration that captivates the city, our parade has come a long way.
The Big 5-0:
This year, as we commemorate half a century of parading, we're not just walking down Broadway Blvd; we're walking down memory lane, honoring the visionaries who started it all and the community that has embraced this event with open hearts.
Be Part of the Legacy:
Don your green attire, gather your friends and family, and dive into a day brimming with cultural pride, joy, and an indomitable Irish spirit. The Kansas City St. Patrick’s Day Parade is more than a parade; it's a vibrant celebration of who we are, where we've been, and where we're going, together, as a community.
