Help to make our parade safe & fun for all

March 1st, 2024 | Posted by arlenewhite in Entertainment | Family | Fun - (0 Comments)

We want our parade to be a safe and enjoyable event for everyone in our community, so we are asking for your help with this year’s parade –

Please do not walk with, or closely follow the parade unless you are part of one of the registered floats;

When you are watching the parade, please try not to move out onto the road, or crowd the people participating in the parade;

We ask that only vehicles which will be in the parade are brought to the start point (Ballina GAA Complex), this will reduce congestion in this area.

To ensure that the parade runs smoothly, we need help with stewarding. Please give one – two hours of your time to be part of it and help out. You can register to steward here

We appreciate your help and we hope you enjoy this year’s St. Patrick’s Day Parade ☘️
