WOODBRIDGE, NJ — The 2024 Woodbridge St. Patrick’s Day parade will be from 1:30 – 4 p.m. March 10.
All are welcome for a celebration of Irish heritage and culture. This is the 50th year of the parade, so expect it to be one of their biggest and best yet. The parade steps off at 1:30 p.m. sharp at Woodbridge High School, marches down Amboy Avenue and ends at — where else! the best spot — in front of Woodbridge Brewing Company on Main Street.
There will be bagpipes and a marching band, food vendors and decorated floats. The Woodbridge parade is said to be the largest St. Patrick’s Day parade in New Jersey.
