The Jersey Shore St. Patrick’s Day Parade Guide

Get your green ready, because it's Saint Patrick's season at the Jersey Shore!

Things have already begun in Asbury Park with a few pre-parade festivities. Leading up to Saint Patrick's Day on March 17th, the Jersey Shore is home to a bunch of parades:

As always, the Belmar Parade happens the first weekend of March. The parade steps off at 12:30pm on Sunday, March 4th, rain or shine. If you can't make it out that day, you can livestream the parade.

A week later, the Ocean County Parade hits Seaside Heights, stepping off on the Boulevard at noon on March 10th. They do have a rain date scheduled for Sunday the 11th. There is also a post-parade party at the Tri-Boro First Aid Squad Building on J Street.

Sunday March 11th will feature not just one, not just two, but THREE parades, so no matter where you are you should be close to one.

• Asbury Park's parade runs down Ocean Avenue starting at 1pm.
• Freehold Borough winds through downtown Freehold, also starting at 1pm. Freehold also continues "Irish Week", featuring a restaurant tour and pub crawl.
• Rumson hosts a parade that will also step off at 1pm.

Keyport extends the celebration past the 17th, with their parade happening on Saturday the 24th, stepping off at 1pm.
