Jackson, Mississippi’s St. Paddy’s Parade

It's finally time for the biggest party in Jackson, Mississippi.  The Mal's St. Paddy's Parade is just weeks away, set for March 20th.  The parade will begin its roll through downtown Jackson at 1:00 pm.  And, this year's theme is "It Ain't Easy Being Green."

The parade will begin its route from State Street to Capitol Street, from Capitol Street to Lamar Street, from Lamar Street to Court Street, and from Court Street back to State Street.  This is the second year the parade will take this route.

There will also be lots of events to participate in throughout the day.  Here is a complete line-up the day's events:

* 8:00 am - St. Paddy's Day Run begins at Bancorp South Building at Capitol and State Streets.  All runs including the 5k Run, 5k walk and 1 mile fun run will be included.

* 9:00 am - Turstmark Children's Festival will begin at the Mississippi Museum of Art.

* 10:00 am - Pet Parade benefiting Mississippi Animal Rescue League begins at the Mississippi Museum of Art.

* 11:00 am - Trustmark Children's Parade will begin at the Mississippi Museum of Art.

* 1:00 pm - Mal's St. Paddy's Parade will begin at State Street.

There will be a Street Party at Hal & Mal's after the parade for anyone who is 21 and over.  There will also be a $6.00 entrance fee.  The Pinstripe Brass Band, the Bluz Boys and more bands will be featured at the street party.

The first St. Paddy's Parade was held back in 1982 and has been Jacskon's most popular party since.  It's a great, all-day, community event for the whole family to enjoy.
