TOP O’ THE MORNING TO YA! Raise a glass for this amazing news! After two years of cancellations due to the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020 and 2021 organizers of Toronto’s St Patrick Parade say the event is scheduled to return March 20th. The announcement was posted on their official website this morning.
St Patrick’s Day is Thursday March 17, 2022 but the parade in Toronto will take place 3 days later.
“Toronto’s St. Patrick’s Parade will return on Sunday, March 20, 2022 (depending on the continued Ontario government’s reopening plan).
When COVID-19 restrictions were announced in March 2020, Toronto St. Patrick’s Parade was among the first to cancel its event. The parade was cancelled once again in 2021.
Following the rollout of vaccinations across the province and the recent reopening plans announced by the Ontario government, Toronto’s St. Patrick’s Parade returns for its annual celebration.
The parade will begin at the corner of St. George and Bloor Street West at 12 pm and proceed down Yonge Street, turning left towards the review stand at Nathan Phillips Square.
We look forward to seeing everyone return to celebrate one of the largest community events in Toronto and the largest Irish event in Canada.”
