Celebrate St Patrick’s Day in Nenagh

The go-to family destination on March 17

Tipperary County Council, Nenagh Tourist Office, Nenagh live, Parade Committee and Spain AV are delighted to announce plans for this year’s St Patrick’s Day celebrations. As part of the Tipperary County Council’s ongoing endeavour to make Nenagh a go-to family destination, this year’s St Patrick’s Day celebrations will be centred around the town's historical district with multiple performance stages, street entertainment, children’s funfair, food and market stalls, live music and St Patrick’s Day Walking Parade. This family filled event is a worthy celebration of Nenagh’s culture, heritage and people.

On St Patrick’s Day, Monday (March 17) the Nenagh celebrations will feature a large outdoor concert and festival market situated in the Nenagh Courthouse carpark. The courthouse market will open at 11.30am while the 2025 festivities will begin with a walking parade starting at 1pm. The main stage music and live performances will begin at 2pm. Hosted by Trudi Lalor, this year’s special guests will include Europe’s No 1 Taylor Swift tribute ‘Taylor NI’ performing live. Jacko the Clown and the team from Giggles Entertainment will be singing and dancing live onstage along with JP’s Video Disco, Lucky the Leprechaun, Bluey, Fireman Sam and Mickey and Minnie Mouse, Tipperary Fire and Rescue, Cleo Griffin, The FitzGerald Brothers, Martin Grace, Nenagh Brass Band and many more musical guests, dancers and performers. You can also dance at the crossroads and celebrate St Patricks Day in style at Banba Square’s traditional music stage complete with outdoor dance floor.

You will also have the chance to meet the Easter Bunny live in the Nenagh Tourist Office while the St Patrick’s Day Express will begin its travels at 2.30pm taking young and old on a fun-filled journey throughout the streets of Nenagh.

Nenagh Festival Director, David Spain, says: “Each year Nenagh Town and its people never cease to amaze me with their good humour, work ethic and constant support for local community events!

“The excitement and anticipation of putting together an event such as this is a labour of love and one that we thoroughly enjoy.

“We are delighted to celebrate the talents of Nenagh’s musicians, singers, dancers and performers with a special emphasis on local culture, producers and artists. The support we have received from local business, Nenagh Chamber of Commerce and Tipperary County Council has once again been overwhelmingly positive!.”
