The Parade will start at 15:45 and proceed from Alcazar Theater down soi 4, then along Beach Road, turning left on South Pattaya Road and ending on the grounds of Pattaya School No. 8.

There will be several marching bands, including the musicians from the Royal Thai Navy. A cast of thousands, young and old, Thai and foreign will march along Beach Road and be joined by many decorated floats.

You don’t have to be Irish to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day; on the 17th of March everyone is Irish, just remember to wear something green.
