The Hudson Saint Patrick’s Day Parade rolls down Main Street on Saturday, March 21 at 1:00 pm, bringing colour, music, and Irish spirit to the heart of the village.
Now in its 15th edition, the parade has grown into the second largest St. Patrick’s parade contingent in Canada — and this year’s goal is bold: to become the most talked-about Irish parade in the country.
With over 100 parade entries, marching bands, local merchants, Shriners, community groups, and special guests, this is one of Hudson’s biggest and most joyful events of the year.
The parade is organized by the Soulanges Irish Society, a not-for-profit community organization founded in 2019. Their work extends far beyond the parade — The SIS is dedicated to celebrating Irish heritage in the Vaudreuil-Soulanges region while supporting local charities and community organizations.
Hudson’s Saint Patrick’s Day Parade is more than an event — it’s a village tradition that brings thousands together in a shared celebration of heritage, generosity, and community spirit.
Wear green. Bring your friends. Support local businesses. And be part of one of Canada’s most spirited Irish celebrations.

The parade is the centrepiece of the week-long Hudson Celtic Festival, running March 17–21, 2026.
Throughout the week, local restaurants and venues host live music, Irish fare, and festive gatherings leading up to parade day.
Expect music, pageantry, family-friendly energy, and a sea of green along Main Street.
