SCOTLAND once again turned green for St Patrick’s Day, with events up and down the country bringing Irish communities across Scotland together as they shared their culture with wider Scottish society, but it was the second annual parade through the streets of Glasgow which once again provided the most high profile spectacle.

THE 2026 edition of the Glasgow St Patrick’s Festival will once again be lit up by a civic parade through the city’s streets that promises to be even bigger and better than last year’s.
