A great day’s entertainment is on the cards for Enniscorthy on St. Patrick’s Day, 17th March. The programme starts at 2.00pm with entertainment in the Market Square consisting of music, dancing and children's entertainment with free face-painting. At 3.00pm the Street Parade commences with pike charging rebels and musket-wielding redcoats battling through the streets of Enniscorthy as part of this year's St. Patrick’s Day Parade. Two marching bands will lend colour to the occasion: the
Northfield Caledonia Pipes & Drums, Birmingham, and St. Colman’s Pipe Band, Ballindaggin. Enniscorthy Castle will provide free family fun with free bouncy castles and facepainting from 12 noon on St. Patrick’s Day. Normal admission prices apply for Castle tour, etc. The 1798 Centre will celebrate St. Patrick’s Day by offering an attractive 2 for 1 on admission to the “Rebellion Experience” for four days only – Saturday 15th to Tues 18th March. ■
