St. Patrick’s Day Observance Association

IrishAmerica250 is a non-partisan, nationwide initiative dedicated to commemorating the enduring legacy of the Irish in America, as we celebrate the United States Semiquincentennial in 2026. The project is made possible through the generous donation of time, expertise, and resources by our directors, who are supporting the mission without compensation.

The St. Patrick’s Day Observance Association presents the Philadelphia St. Patrick’s Day Parade and associated events since 1771.

Join The Irish Society of Philadelphia for a vibrant community experience filled with engaging events, cultural celebrations, and opportunities to connect with fellow Irish enthusiasts. Benefit from our welcoming atmosphere and rich traditions.
