Wexford Town's St. Patrick's Day Parade is probably the oldest parade in the country; it started back in 1917 and continued until the outbreak of world war two. In 1946 the parade was re-started. In the early days the parade started in the Swan in the Faythe and would make its way to Rowe Street Church in time for mid-day mass.
Despite the recession, the Wexford Town Parade will go ahead as planned this year.
