Every March, countries across the world celebrate St Patrick’s Day with a huge parade, and in London, you’ll find one of the best. The London St Patrick’s Day Festival attracts more than 125,000 people and features a spectacular Parade, a huge festival in Trafalgar Square, and plenty (and we mean plenty) to eat and drink. It’s become a destination event showcasing the best of Irish food, music, dance, and culture. This year’s celebrations take place on Sunday, 12th March, when the huge parade sets off at midday.  The London Saint Patrick’s Day Parade starts at Hyde Park Corner, then travels through Piccadilly, St James’s Street, Pall Mall, Cockspur Street, and Whitehall.
