The Best Places to Celebrate St. Patrick’s Day
| March 18, 2019
London
Another great city for a showy St. Patrick’s Day parade is London. England’s capital hosts a huge parade every March, which starts in Piccadilly and ends in Whitehall, winding its way through landmarks like the Piccadilly Circus and Trafalgar Square, where there’s a whole day of Irish music, entertainment, and food for the public to enjoy.
If you have young kids or want to avoid crowds, head to Pall Mall East, where there’s usually a quieter celebration going on with kid-friendly entertainment and activities. If you’re keeping up with Six Nations rugby, head over to The Faltering Fullback in Stroud Green to cheer on the Irish.
