St. Patrick’s Day Parade in Fukuoka
A splash of green comes to Hakata on Mar 14, 2027, as Fukuoka’s St. Patrick’s Day parade takes place at Kamikawabata Shopping Arcade. Celebrating Ireland’s patron saint and cultural exchange between Fukuoka and Ireland, the event features a parade, Irish music and introductions to Irish culture. Anyone can join by wearing green clothing or accessories.
Held at Shintencho Shopping Arcade since 2014, the event moves to Kamikawabata this year due to redevelopment in Tenjin. It offers a chance to welcome spring while enjoying Irish traditions and international exchange in the heart of the city.
