It’s time to Dream Big Dundalk as the St. Patrick’s Day Parade is less than 2 months away. ‘Dream Big Dundalk’ is this year’s theme for the Dundalk parade and is kindly ‘on loan’ from Dundalk Credit Union – Main Sponsors of the 2018 event!
There’s going to be lots to do and see this year, with a new route which includes the old parade route meeting point of Philip Street then taking in the town from Bridge Street right up to Dublin Street. The parade will start at the now traditional time of 1pm on Saturday 17th March.
The ever-popular Pelican Promotions Family Fun Zone at the Market Square returns again with music, food stalls and kids fun rides. €6 wristbands will be on sale in the run up to St. Patrick’s Day and on the day offering unlimited use of the amusements.
The St. Patrick’s Day Parade Committee have been meeting since November and are thrilled to welcome Dundalk Credit Union on Market Street as the main sponsor.
David Minto, Committee Chairman said “We’re excited Dundalk Credit Union is leading our team of sponsors. The Credit Union is a community effort which plays a huge role in Dundalk life – we’ve been inspired to take on its ‘Dream Big Dundalk’ motto for this years St. Patrick’s Day Parade.
Majella Toner Downey, Business Development Executive at Dundalk Credit Union is equally thrilled to be involved in Dundalk’s March 17th celebrations. “Dundalk Credit Union are absolutely delighted to share our Dream Big Dundalk message in the St. Patrick’s Day events – we are delighted to have taken on the main sponsor role this year and look forward to a fantastic family day out!”
