Hilton Head Island starts looking a lot greener mid-March–and we’re not just talking about the tidal marshes and flower beds! Every year, Hilton Head Ireland<\/strong> pulls out all the stops for what’s arguably the best parade in the whole state of South Carolina<\/strong>: the island’s annual St. Patrick’s Day Parade. What visitors and residents wait all year for, the Hilton Head Ireland committee plan<\/em> all year for, and we’re expecting exciting things from this year’s 40th anniversary of this long-cherished event<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If this sounds a bit familiar to you, you might’ve planned to attend last year’s<\/em> 40th Annual St. Patrick’s Day Parade. Unfortunately due to weather, 2025’s parade had to be canceled<\/strong>. So here we are in 2026 with a second crack at the 40th run of the parade–so you know it’s going to be good!<\/em> <\/p>\n\n\n\n
