The St. Patrick’s Parade is an amazing day filled with music, dance, floats and fun! It is the city’s largest celebration of Irish-Canadian culture with thousands of participants and over 100 entries. Toronto’s diversity is on full display with dozens of groups marching in support of their connections to Ireland and Canada.
