The St. Patrick’s Day Parade is Saturday, March 16 on Fifth Avenue South in downtown Naples starting at 11:00 AM. A little over 40 years ago a group of fun-loving Neapolitans got together and decided to have a parade to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day. Through the hard work of many volunteers and the generous support of patrons, the parade has prospered in the decades since. The parade is now the largest privately-funded parade in the state. It draws over 40,000 people to downtown Naples each year to celebrate Irish heritage and Irish culture in America. The Naples St. Patrick Foundation has donated over $200,000 to local high school bands and scholarships in the last five years.
