Montco has two chances to join the festivities this St. Paddy’s, writes Patch.
The first celebration arrives when the Conshohocken St. Patrick’s Day Parade marches down Fayette Street on Saturday, March 14, from 2 to 5 p.m.
This year’s theme connects with America’s upcoming 250th anniversary, featuring the slogan “Irish Hands Building America.” James P. Gallagher will serve as the 2026 grand marshal.
Festivities in Conshohocken begin earlier in the day with the 13th annual Conshohocken St. Paddy’s Day 5K Classic at 12:30 p.m. Along the parade route, pubs and restaurants will host celebrations and specials throughout the afternoon.
A week later, Glenside will host the 2nd Annual Glenside St. Patrick’s Day Parade & Festival on Saturday, March 21, in Keswick Village. The parade begins at 11 a.m. at the Glenside Library and travels along Keswick Avenue.
Organizers expect more than 60 groups to participate. Frances and Bill Donahue will serve as dual grand marshals for the event.
Following the parade, a festival runs from noon to 5 p.m., featuring 14 musical acts across four stages, food trucks, and a beer garden.
