MANCHESTER, NH – The Manchester St. Patrick’s Parade Committee has come to the decision that, due to the information provided by the CDC regarding COVID-19, the Manchester St. Patrick’s Parade, scheduled for March 29, 2020, will be canceled.
We are canceling out of the concern for the safety, health and well-being of our downtown partners, spectators, fans and participants.

We would like to thank all of our sponsors for their continued support.  For a list of sponsors, please visit www.saintpatsnh.com
