Yonkers St. Patrick's Day Parade on McLean Avenue

The 59th Annual Yonkers St. Patrick’s Day Parade on
McLean Avenue - March 22, 2014

2014 Grand Marshal

Fr. Thomas Collins, President of Archbishop Stepinac High School 

Two
great St. Patrick's Day parades in Yonkers have become one. The official

Yonkers parade, held for the past 58 years along South Broadway, has merged

with the McLean Avenue Merchants Association parade to create one great city-wide
community event.  This combination begins a new era for Yonkers as it brings together two celebrations honoring Irish
heritage and contributions as well as the Patron Saint of Ireland and the
Archdiocese of New York.


Beginning at 1
p.m., the Parade will step off at Bronx River Road and proceed up McLean Avenue
to Coyne Park.
