GREEN BAY, WISCONSIN, March 18th – Celebrate Irish heritage and culture in Downtown Green Bay at the St. Patrick’s Day Parade presented by Cellcom.

The Heritage Academy of Irish Dance, O’Darby Irish Pub Band, and the Notre Dame Marching Band will be performing at St. Brendan’s Inn.
“In these drab months at the end of winter, everyone needs an excuse to get out and have a little fun,” states Jeff Mirkes, Executive Director of Downtown Green Bay, Inc. “The St. Patrick’s Day Parade brings people together to enjoy music, share a few drinks, and celebrate Irish culture in Green Bay. It’s also an opportunity to increase foot traffic downtown and support local small businesses.”
