Letterkenny Chamber is the sole organiser of the annual St.
Patrick's Day Parade . The event attracts thousands
of people to Letterkenny and is a wonderful family day out.
The success of the Parade is also down to the generous contributions
made by the local business community, without whom, it could
not be possible.
The Parade is preceded by family entertainment
at Market Square. Speeches from our invited guests follow while
awaiting the judges' decision on the Parade winners.
There are various competition categories on the day of the
Parade, normally including:
- Community
- Sport
- Youth
-
Traditional
- Business
- Carnival
Each category winner receives a hand carved plaque and the
overall winning entry receives the Danny Doherty Perpetual
Plaque plus a cheque for €1,500.
