Bagpipes, dancers, and coastal cheer in Newport
Step into spring with marching bands, Irish dancers, and family-friendly floats along Newport’s waterfront streets, capped by harbor views and treats.
Event details
Newport’s St. Patrick’s Day Parade is pure seaside charm: bagpipes echo off clapboard storefronts, kids wave from curbside chairs, and color floods Broadway on its way toward the harbor. Arrive early for a good spot near City Hall, then follow the lively procession as it winds through downtown, where pubs and bakeries lean into the theme without turning the day into an adults-only affair.
Pair the parade with an easy coastal walk afterward. A quick drive brings you to Ocean Drive and the Cliff Walk viewpoints, where salty air and crashing surf feel like the best possible spring reset for the whole crew.
