There are parades in towns and cities all over the country. It is a national holiday in Ireland so most people will be off work which leads to a great party atmosphere. If you plan on catching the festivities in a few different towns then hiring a car at Dublin Airport could be a decent option.

The largest parade of course takes place in the capital city Dublin. If you are visiting Ireland id imagine you are arriving for more than just St Patrick’s day. Why not head west for Galway or south for Cork. If you arrive at Shannon or Knock Airport you can also avail of our car hire service which is worth considering due to the lack of public transportation to many of the hidden gems of the West of Ireland.

Cork is renowned as a fun hospitable city which you should certainly take some time to visit. Make the most of your trip to Ireland and take in as much of the paddy’s day celebrations as you can.
