Put on your green and head to Downtown Bartow for a fun, free community celebration as Saint Paddy’s Unparade kicks off March Friday Fest March 20.
The evening begins with the Saint Paddy’s Unparade — an informal, just-for-fun march where the community gathers and walks together from Nye Jordan Park to downtown to start the festivities. This is not a formally organized parade — there’s no registration and no fees — just friends, families, festive costumes and plenty of Irish spirit making their way downtown together.
