American Holidays - Boston St Paddy's Day 2010

Is there a more Irish city in the United States than Boston?

St. Patricks Day week is a fine time to take in the festivities and tour a bit of the city.

Below are a few of the many events taking place in the Boston area to celebrate. Colorful floats, music and Irish good cheer await you at the City's annual St. Patrick's Day parade. Celebrate Irish heritage in Boston's most Irish neighborhood. Join the estimated 600,000 people who'll turn out for this year's 106th St. Patrick's Day Parade in South Boston. The parade steps off at 1 p.m. on Sunday, March 14 2010, beginning at the Broadway "T" Station and ending at Andrew Square; there have been some slight modifications to the parade route this year. Your best bet for viewing the parade is to stake out a spot anywhere along Broadway--get there early. The three-hour parade features marching bands from throughout North America, pipe bands and floats.

Located in the former headquarters of the Boston Police Department, it is now an even more arresting proposition after a stunning renovation program that has created a modern-day landmark in this magnificent city.
