Mark your calendars and get ready for a St. Patrick’s Day celebration like no other! The Independent Order of Odd Fellows is once again proud to host the World’s Shortest St. Patrick’s Day Parade & Fundraising After-Party on Saturday, March 14th, in the 1500 block of Pearl Street, Boulder.

Celebrating Irish culture and community spirit, the festivities will happen rain or shine.   

The parade kicks off at 12:00 PM sharp, showcasing a unique lineup of Irish dancers, bagpipes, wolfhounds, cruiser bikes, and the ever-entertaining Paddy ‘O Drill Team. This pint sized parade might be short in length but is packed with big Irish spirit.

The fun doesn’t stop there-the Oddfellow Lodge at 1543 Pearl Street will be hosting a fundraising after-party that will keep the celebration going, tickets available in advance for $10 or $15 at the door. Doors open at 10am. With a view overlooking the parade route, the after-party will begin with the rousing sound of bagpipes filling the air, then continue as Avourneen takes the stage to deliver their own high-energy take on Irish music. There will be food for purchase and plenty of Irish cheer so wear your green, bring your friends, and don’t miss out on this beloved Boulder tradition!
