Westport

Westport is set to celebrate a weekend of festivities as part of its St. Patrick’s Day celebrations.

On Saturday, March 14, a Duck Race fundraiser is set to take place on the mall, with prizes awarded on the day. Ducks will be available to purchase on the day, with all proceeds going towards the St. Patrick’s Day parade.

The Westport St. Patrick’s Day parade will take place on Tuesday, March 17. Organised by the ‘Gathering for Patrick’ committee, the parade will once again showcase the many community groups, clubs, and organisations of Westport. 

This year’s theme, “Reeling In the Years,” will see participants celebrate their groups’ milestones and achievements over the years. The parade will be led by legendary musician and member of The Chieftains, Matt Molloy, as Grand Marshal.
