Cleveland's St. Patrick's Day Parade Committee kicked off the 2021 Parade Cycle this week.
Stay tuned for updates related to the 2021 Cleveland St. Patrick's Day Parade!
2021 Parade Theme
The 2021 Parade Theme will be:
Ireland’s Scenic Coastlines
The Parade Committee appreciates all of the planning, time and resources that goes into the creation of floats for the St. Patrick's Day Parade. Many organizations spend months preparing their floats, and most floats were ready to go for the 2020 Parade. Therefore, the Parade Committee has opted to carry forward the 2020 Parade Theme to the 2021 Parade. We can't wait to see what's in store for the 2021 Parade!
Pictured above are the Cliffs of Moher, County Clare, just one of the many coastlines that could be featured in the floats entered into the 2021 Parade.
