Plenty of activities happening on March 17
Belfast is gearing up to host an extended festival that will include a trad trail, free concert and colourful carnival pageant.
St Patrick’s Day, the annual parade organised by Beat Carnival will snake its way through the city centre – a colourful pageant of costumes, music, dance, circus and theatrical performances. "And our St Patrick’s Eve concert looks set to be a fantastic evening and one that all the family can enjoy." Lord Mayor Black continued: "I’m really excited about leading the St Patrick’s Day parade and seeing the city come alive with colour and performances.
David Boyd, Beat Carnival Director said: 2We’re working on a ‘Voices of Belfast’ cavalcade to present colourful pictures of our rich musical life. Sounds of ancient horns will lead the parade, followed by lively trad from our folk and percussion community.
