St. Patrick’s Day Parade & Celebration – Crosslake

March 12 - March 14

Join in the fun on Saturday, March 14, 2026 and see for yourself why the Crosslake St. Patrick’s Day Parade & Celebration has been declared the Best of the Brainerd Lakes AND the Best in the State!

What started out in the 70’s as a remedy for Cabin Fever, has grown into a destination event for thousands of green-clad, Irish-for-a-day, weekend enthusiasts. Some build a float and travel the 1.5 mile long route handing out hundreds of pounds of candy and trinkets, and others set up lawn chairs, days in advance to get ”their perfect spot” for family and friends.

Rain, shine, or even snow—the parade will go on! Plan for a fantastic day!

The 1.5 mile parade kicks off at 1:15 PM in Crosslake Town Square and ends just before the bridge over Cross & Daggett Lakes.

Get apparel, trinkets, costumes and more at Crosslake merchants city-wide and embrace the Paint the Town Green parade theme!
