About the event
Join us for London’s St Patrick’s Day on Sunday 16 March in Trafalgar Square. Enjoy the best of Irish arts, culture, food and music, along with the spectacular parade.
The Mayor’s annual shindig has become a highlight of London’s cultural calendar. It brings together Londoners and visitors to celebrate the many contributions the Irish community have made to our great city.
St Patrick’s Day is a chance to honour the lasting friendship between the British and Irish people. This event begins with a parade of Irish marching bands, dance troupes and pageantry, travelling from Hyde Park Corner to Trafalgar Square.
The action continues in Trafalgar Square, where the main stage hosts a world-class line up of Irish acts, programmed by the London Irish Centre. Plus there's lots of family activities, great food stalls and a bar to enjoy.
We look forward to welcoming you to St Patrick's Day.
