Let’s paint the town green

arrangements are being made for the biggest St Patrick’sday Parade cabo roig has ever seen! this is one of the largest parades in europe, outside of ireland and this year will be better than ever. the parade will last for around 90 minutes with marching bands,dance groups, a variety of different acts and floats and the committee is working hard to make it very colourful with spectacular acts to give a carnival effect. the parade will start at 3pm but the fun and frivolities will start around 12noon as people head to the area to get a good viewing spot. all the bars on the strip will have live music throughout the day and night.

the back and front of the strip will be covered with green white and gold buntings to add to the occasion and the guest of honour, parade Marshall anthony Molloy,will be on hand to give a ‘cead mile failte’ (a hundred thousand welcomes) to everyone. he will be joined by other ViPirish guests and the Mayor and the councillors of orihuela costa.
