The ST. PATRICK'S DAY PARADE began in 1969 when a group of local businessmen convened in HARRY'S OFFICE BAR on Queen Cross St. in Christiansted for a "cool one".

keepers, who came out to see what all the noise was about. Those who were already wearing green got into the spirit at once, while others who needed something green ran into the shops to find it, running back outside to wave at the paraders. Some even joined the procession! And so, the FIRST St. Patrick's Day Parade was born. To this day, it is going strong and is an important day for the community, beneficiaries and tourists.

The 39th Annual St. Patrick's Day Parade will be held on Saturday March 15, 2008 in Christiansted, St. Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands.

Parade starts at 11:00 AM SHARP.
See you there!!!
