As you probably know, March is Irish heritage month in many places, thanks to the March 17 celebration of the life of St. Patrick, beloved patron of Ireland. Our "parade", also the 18th edition of the Carnival of Irish Heritage & Culture, will be open to anything and everything about Irish heritage, genealogy and culture. Articles about St. Patrick will be appreciated, but articles related to any meaningful aspect of Ireland's heritage are welcomed. Important note: No Irish heritage is required to participate!The deadline is Sunday, March 14, 2009. Submit your parade entry here. Then come join us for the parade on St. Patrick's Day, March 17, 2009. On the feast of St. Patrick, everyone likes to be Irish, at least for one day. Hope to see you at the parade wearing your green!

Hi,
What a great idea. Alas I will be on a plane during the parade.
I did get my Irish Heritage and Culture entry done for the carnival. Read it here: http://www.luxegen.ca/genealogy/early-irish-methodists/
Thanks for your great Irish blog!

Great post. If you'd like to see this year's Dublin parade, Irish Ancestral Holidays recorded it for their blog. Some great photo's and video's:
