The 46th annual St. Patrick's Day Parade and Siamsa brought thousands of Utahns decked out in green and shamrocks together in downtown Salt Lake City Saturday.
SALT LAKE CITY — St. Patrick's Day isn't just a holiday for Kellie Stone. It's also her birthday and a day to celebrate her Irish heritage.Hibernian Society of Utah
"We've been in the parade before, we've won best family float before, and we come out every year just to support and have a good time," Stone said. This year's parade focused on diversity within the Irish community, celebrating everyone who is Irish — whether they are 1% or 99% Irish. "We are excited to welcome back crowds for one of the city's favorite cultural events," said Jacklyn Briggs, The Gateway's marketing director. "This parade and festival is always one of the most highly anticipated of the year and a great kick-off to event season here at The Gateway."
"It's fun to come out," he said. "It kind of reminds me of spring too, as it's starting to get warm out."
