Our Mission
The Tucson St. Patrick’s Day Parade & Festival is dedicated to celebrating Irish heritage, culture, and traditions while fostering a spirit of community and inclusivity. Our annual Parade and Festival, along with various educational initiatives, aim to both honor Irish history and enhance cultural awareness within Tucson.
Through music, dance, language, literature, crafts, and the arts, we provide opportunities for individuals of all backgrounds to engage with and appreciate the richness of Irish culture. Additionally, we embrace cross-cultural collaboration between the United States and Ireland, strengthening connections that inspire mutual understanding, artistic exchange, and a shared appreciation for diverse traditions.
By promoting cultural exchange and community involvement, we help enrich Tucson’s vibrant arts scene, encourage unity among different cultural groups, and create a dynamic, inclusive space where heritage and history come to life for all to enjoy.
