St. Patrick's Day
What Events Take Place in Savannah Besides the Parade

Many events occur leading up to the Savannah St. Patrick's Day Parade, including the "Greening of the Fountain," Tara Feis, Tybee Island Parade, Celtic Cross Mass & Ceremony, William Jasper Ceremony, the Investiture of the Parade Grand Marshall, the Savannah Irish Festival and the pre-parade St. Patrick's Day Mass.

The Irish Festival is the earliest of these events, occuring in mid-February and the last event before the parade is the St. Patrick's Day Mass, which occurs at 8am on March 17th -- two hours before the parade begins.
