Tips for First-Timers

Arrive early — the parade draws tens of thousands, and bars fill up by noon. Wear green or you'll stand out. Book your tickets in advance; this is one of the fastest-selling crawls of the year. Consider rideshare or the QLine; parking in Corktown is extremely limited on parade day. Pace yourself; this is a marathon, not a sprint.

Popular Neighborhoods

Corktown is the undisputed heart of Detroit's St. Patrick's Day celebration, with Michigan Avenue's historic Irish pubs hosting the main action. Downtown Detroit offers additional participating venues, and the parade route runs along Michigan Avenue through both neighborhoods.
