The St. Patrick's Day Parade Committee in Savannah, Georgia, is dedicated to promoting a festive and responsible celebration of the Feast of Saint Patrick. With a rich history dating back to 1824, the committee organizes the annual St. Patrick's Day Parade, emphasizing faith, family, and friends as the foundation of the event. They strive to create a family-friendly atmosphere where the community can come together to celebrate Irish culture and the spread of Christianity by St. Patrick.
Under the leadership of General Chairman Timothy P. Tim Mahoney, the committee works closely with local government agencies, including the Chatham County Sheriff's Office and the City of Savannah, to ensure a safe and enjoyable experience for all attendees. In addition to the parade, the committee hosts various special events leading up to the 200th anniversary of the parade, such as greening the fountain at Forsyth Park and the Celtic Cross Mass and ceremony at the Basilica Cathedral of St. John the Baptist. They invite everyone to join in the celebration of faith and Irish culture on March 16th, as they commemorate this significant milestone in Savannah's history.
