Phoenix Chapter Fun SIG

Parade

From the Parade Web site  

(Information is from 2005 and will be updated)
The parade begins at Central and Thomas in Phoenix. It continues southbound on Central to Hance (Deck) Park. The park (1100 North Central) is also the location of the Irish Faire, located on the west side of Central by the Irish Cultural Center.

Be there for LOTS of fun. The parade and faire promise to be the best yet. Eat and drink to your heart's desire while hearing toe-tapping (and foot-stomping) music and watching some of the Valley's top Irish dance troupes. Visit the many craft and information booths and enjoy our community's premiere St. Patrick's Day family event!

Fun SIG tip: Get there early and bring a folding chair. Don't forget to wear green. If you sit on the west side of Central, consider wearing sunscreen and sunglasses.
