For the first time since the onset of the Covid-19 pandemic, the St Patrick’s Day Festival will return to Irish streets this year.
The festival in Dublin, which will run from Wednesday to Sunday, will include performances by artists and comedians such as Lyra, Damien Dempsey, Neil Delamare and Kevin McGahern.
Olympic and Paralympic sporting heroes Kellie Harrington and Ellen Keane will be the grand marshals of the parade, while Irish-American actor John C Reilly, who starred in Step Brothers, will be the international guest of honour.
Up to 400,000 people are expected to attend the parade in the capital on Thursday, which organisers have said will be the “biggest and brightest” to date.
The parade is to begin at noon at Parnell Square, coming down O’Connell Street, moving around College Green and Dame Street, before looping down Lord Edward Street and finishing on Kevin Street at around 2pm.
The gardaí said an extensive policing plan is in place, with 650 members of the force working across the city.
Dublin city centre off-licences have been asked not to sell alcohol until 4pm, to prevent crowds drinking on the streets. Restaurants and pubs have also been asked to ensure any alcohol sold was consumed on the premises.
Meanwhile, outside of Dublin, parades will also resume in most cities, towns and villages.
In Cork City, the festivities will kick off at 1pm on Thursday from South Mall, and will be live-streamed online from 12.45pm.
The theme of this year’s parade is the ordinary heroes that have brought us through extraordinary times.
Bray, Co Wicklow is hosting its own festival from Wednesday until Sunday, which will include funfairs, treasure hunts, live music and face painting.
Olympians Fiona Murtagh and Aifric Keogh are the grand marshalls for Galway’s St Patrick’s Day parade.
The parade starts at 11.30am and will run through Galway city centre for an hour.
