What would you like to see for the future of St Patrick's Day in Belfast?
Belfast City Council has a remit to deliver on St Patrick’s Day Celebrations, as part of a programme of city events. Previously, the main celebrations consisted of a carnival parade along a city centre route, followed by a free music concert for all ages in the city centre on St Patrick’s Day.
Current Context
A new approach to designing and delivering city events was recently introduced, which supports the ambition and creativity of our city.
The council is developing this in a collaboration with the creative sector, artists and citizens over a number of years, looking to a future where people feel they can actively feed in to and participate in events in many ways.
The 2022 programme of activities included a St Patrick’s Eve concert, a fresh approach to the Parade, and other citywide activity including musical trails, storytelling, workshops and community participation. This programme took place across a number of days and involved a number of key partners.
Creative Consultation
We want to expand on this through engagement with the public - asking key questions which you can complete online, as well as a number of creative outreach workshops.
We’d really appreciate it if you could take some time to tell us what St Patrick’s Day means for you currently and what you would like to see for it in the future.
We welcome all perspectives, but please be mindful and respectful of others when leaving comments.
