In the Capitale-Nationale region, the Irish population has been firmly rooted since the 19th century. The City of Québec is particularly proud to be associated with St. Patrick’s Day in Québec City and the 11th annual presentation of its parade.
In addition to the parade, which will take place in the streets of Quebec City on Saturday, March 25, citizens and tourists will also be able to enjoy the entertainment offered in the Montcalm, Old Quebec, Grande Allée and Faubourg Saint-Jean areas.
The native Irish and the Irish at heart are all invited to this great popular celebration!
From March 20 to 26, 2023, Quebec City goes green!
Quebecers and the Irish have shared strong ties for centuries, dating back to the arrival of hundreds of thousands of Irish immigrants in Quebec City in the early and mid-nineteenth century, and particularly during the tragic period of the Great Famine in Ireland between 1845 and 1851.
