St Patrick’s Festival in Jeopardy
When: Tuesday 10th January 2012, 19:30
Where: Birmingham Irish Centre, Digbeth High Street
Is the St Patrick’s Day Parade Important to you or your business?
The Birmingham St Patrick’s Day Parade is in jeopardy this year. There will be a meeting this week to explain the issues, and how the whole community needs to help to ensure it goes ahead.
Please attend if you can – make sure to invite friends, family and business acquaintances to the meeting too!


There currently is no “st patricks day parade committee” The board is going through a transition in which a new board will be elected at the egm on wed 18th Jan. The individuals who have organised the meeting mentioned above I understand wish to be involved in the new board.However untill they are voted in by the members have no decision making powers. The festival has had a difficult year with lots of change and desperately needs the support of yourselves and the community. I really hope that you will support the new board once they are elected and assist them with putting on the parade.
Kind regards
Emma Key
Director of Birmingham St Patricks Festival
