This year the St. Patrick's Day Parade will take place on St. Patrick's Day March 17th. It takes place at 11:30am downtown. Before the parade there is a run that starts at 9am. This is one of St. Louis' biggest runs. Most of the runners stay after for the parade which makes this one of the biggest St. Patrick's Day Parades in the USA. This parade has over 120 units, marching bands and floats. There are always the beloved gigantic balloon charactors that march their way along the parade route along with a lot of clowns. There will be over 250,000 spectators that will line the streets. To feed these people there will be vendors that line the streets along the parade route and will sell everything from soft drinks to beer and brats, burgers and dogs. If you want to stay and enjoy the after party head to Kiener Plaza for the Irish Village.
For our patients that attend the parade or run and bring in photos there will be an extra surpize awaiting them in our office!!!
Please enjoy the parade and wear all the green you can.
If you are in our office in the month of March wear your green and receive extra coins.
