About this listen

Kate McBride joins the show to talk about the planning, history, and community impact behind the Tops Rochester St. Patrick’s Day Parade. What looks like one afternoon of celebration actually takes a full year of preparation from a dedicated team of volunteers.
Each year, the parade draws tens of thousands of spectators, features more than 100 entries, bands from across New York State, Irish dancers, community organizations, and floats that fill downtown Rochester with music and celebration.
The parade kicks off Saturday, March 14 at 12:30 PM, starting at East Avenue and Alexander Street and ending at Main and Fitzhugh.
