Time to get your Irish on! Grab your St. Patrick's Day kilt and join us for our annual run/walk with the best of Bellingham. Costumes highly encouraged-the greener the better!
Bellinghamʼs St. Patrickʼs Day parade is a great chance to connect with our community! The parade is in honor of all local safety personnel, and itʼs also a chance to green up our beloved Bellingham and celebrate all the great businesses, groups, schools and nonprofits that make this community what it is.
Everyone's invited to join in the fun. Whether you decide to march in the parade, (all family-friendly, nonpolitical groups are encouraged!) or spectate from the sidewalks of downtown Bellingham, we welcome you to join us for this community wide event and help us celebrate all the ways we can make Bellingham greener!
