🍀 Join us for the 21st Annual St. Patrick’s Day Parade in Highlands! 🇺🇸
Saturday, March 21, 2026 | 2:00 PM
Hosted by the Highlands Business Partnership, this year’s parade celebrates Irish culture and the America 250 theme, bringing the community together with nearly 100 marching units, including bagpipers, marching bands, Irish dancers, and festive floats.
The parade will begin at Waterwitch Avenue and continue along Bay Avenue, led by the 2026 Grand Marshal, Mayor Carolyn Broullon, starting from Huddy Park. Participants will march along a one-mile stretch of Bay Avenue.
Highlands Business Partnership will also host the annual “Competition of Floats”. Businesses and organizations in Highlands will compete in three categories: Best of Show, Prettiest, and Most Original. A trophy will also be awarded for Best of Apparatus.
Support this non-profit event by purchasing a ticket for the “Lucky Pot of Gold” 50/50 Raffle—proceeds fund the parade, and the winner does not need to be present.
Enjoy free giveaways from parade floats, live pipe bands, and entertainment throughout town. Don’t forget to stop by one of Highlands’s many great restaurants to continue the celebration!
