The San Antonio River will turn into the River Shannon next month for St. Patrick's Day - and there's a free parade too!
This year, the dyeing will take place from 1-3 p.m. on March 17 and March 19.
“It will stay dyed a couple of days but not be as strong the second day,” Visit San Antonio spokesperson Maggie Thompson told KSAT. Thompson also said this year will be bigger than any other as additional sections of the river will be dyed. “We are dying the Museum Reach up to the Pearl on Saturday the nineteenth,” said Thomspon. “We will also have another parade in that area after our regular parade.”A St. Patrick’s Day parade will take place from 4-5 p.m. on March 19 along the 2.5 mile downtown stretch of the River Walk. The parade will start at Mad Dogs, located at 123 Losoya Street. A Luck of the Irish parade will follow and take place along the Museum Reach from 6-7 p.m.
