The parade is the largest St. Patrick’s parade in the Southwest and admission is free.
Over 125,000 people are expected to turn out for the event; the parade is returning in 2022 after a two-year hiatus due to the pandemic.
The annual parade is hosted by the Greenville Avenue Area Business Association, which was founded in 1987, and presented by the Dallas Mavericks, the event’s top sponsor since 2016.
Fans might remember that Mavs governor Mark Cuban helped revive the iconic parade back in 2012. He’s a staunch supporter of the celebration and scholarship fund. In the past, Cuban has served as grand marshal and this year will be especially unique because of the connection to Nowitzki.
