St. Patrick’s Day Parade with Irish Wolfhounds

Join the St. Patrick’s Day parade through the heart of Helsinki, led by iconic Irish Wolfhounds. Organised in collaboration with the Pääkaupunkiseudun irlikset, and the Finnish-Irish Society, the parade starts at Töölö Sports Hall carpark (Kisahalli) at 14.00, follows along Töölö Bay, and finishes at Molly Malone’s at around 15:00, where the festival continues indoors. 

UPDATE: For smaller kids or people with limited mobility we will have a stop at Oodi (14:30-14:45) where you can join in for the final stretch to Molly Malones.

Everyone is welcome to take part, wear green, bring your friends. Dogs of all sizes and shapes are very welcome too!
