The 35th Annual Kelly’s St. Patrick’s Day Parade is rolling into Nags Head, NC, on Sunday, March 15, 2026, at 1:00 PM! As the largest St. Patrick’s Day parade in North Carolina, this Outer Banks favorite brings the fun with over 100 parade entries—think festive floats, lively marching bands, and awesome community groups—cruising along Beach Road from Bladen Street to Driftwood Street.
The fun starts early at the Nags Head Pier. While the pier is still under construction, don’t worry—we’ll have live music and plenty of spots where you can bring a chair, kick back, and soak up the shamrock-filled fun.
Festivities begin at noon, with the parade stepping off at 1:00 PM.
Grab your friends, wear your green, and come celebrate with us—we can’t wait to see you there! ☘️
