PITTSTON – Sarah Donahue, co-chair of Pittston’s 12th Annual St. Patrick Parade, recently released the lineup for the parade, which steps off on Saturday, March 1, at 11:30 a.m.
Please note the lineup is tentative and could change up until parade day.
This year, the parade will have five divisions and 75 units featuring four pipe and drum bands and two Irish step dance teams.
“We have received a number of new entries this year, which tells me that even after all these years there’s still great interest in our parade,” Donahue said. “I love that last year someone watched the parade and said, ‘Hey I think I want to be in that next year,’ and here they are.”
As a reminder, traffic will be halted at 10:00 a.m.
