There was a huge crowd in attendance at the Portlaoise St Patrick’s Day parade.
Portlaoise Musical Society and Dunamaise Arts Centre were joint Grand Marshalls of the event.
This was a big honour as they both celebrate their 25th anniversaries in 2024.
The popular Streets of Portlaoise road race proceeded the parade and was very well attended also.
For the parade itself, crowds gathered from lunchtime and marched down the town.
Photographer Denis Byrne was present at the parade today.
