We are pleased to announce that the Allentown St. Patrick's Parade will march down the streets of Allentown, Pennsylvania for a 67th year on Sunday March 22, 2026.

The first known St. Patrick's Parade was held in Allentown in the late 1860's. Almost a century later, in 1955, what we know as the modern day Allentown St. Patrick's Day Parade was organized by business and political leaders through the St. Patrick's Day Observance Society. The Parade ran from 12th and Hamilton Streets to the Immaculate Conception Church on Ridge Avenue.

The Allentown St. Patrick's Parade Committee has recently become aware of SCAMMERS, claiming to be associated with the parade and it's events, sending messages or emails looking for food vendors. Please be advised that we are not soliciting food vendors for any of our events at this time. Any independent food trucks or vendors at the parade would be required to follow official procedure and obtain a permit from the City of Allentown, and are in no way affiliated with or organized by the Allentown St. Patrick's Parade Committee.
