About this happenin

Nearly every group in Winter Park's St. Patrick's Day parade hands out candy and beads, so the curb fills with kids. It's Central Florida's only St. Patrick's Day parade, stepping off at 9 a.m. on a Saturday in early March and heading south down brick-paved Park Avenue from Canton Avenue to Lyman Avenue, past shopfronts and the live oaks of Central Park. Pipe and drum corps march with Irish dance schools, city police and fire crews, mounted and K-9 units, high school marching units and classic cars. Watching is free and no ticket is needed. Park Avenue and its side streets close from roughly 5:30 a.m. to 11 a.m., so head for the free municipal lots and garages a block off the avenue. Sidewalk spots get claimed well before step-off. Wear green. The city's Community Redevelopment Agency and the Winter Park Rotary Club organize it now, continuing a parade the Irish American Cultural Society of Central Florida ran for over 35 years.
