The 44th annual Nutley St. Patrick’s Day Parade
The 44th annual Nutley St. Patrick’s Day Parade will be on March 4. Preparations have officially begun. Parade day will begin with an Investiture Mass at St. Mary’s Roman Catholic Church at 10 a.m. After the Mass, parade lineup will begin at noon at the Holy Family Roman Catholic Church parking lot and parade step off will begin promptly at 1 p.m. If you would like to march in the parade but have a physical restriction that keeps you from marching, contact the Nutley Irish American Association and it can arrange to have a car for you.
In memory of Mary O’Connell, everyone is invited to place a statue of the Blessed Mother facing out of your front window the week before the parade. O’Connell would tell us that, if we did that, the Blessed Mother would bless us with good weather!

The Post Parade Party will be at the Nutley Parks and Recreation building at 44 Park Ave. in Nutley from 2 to 7 p.m. Admission is $25 in advance, $30 at the door. Tickets for children 12 and younger are $10 and children 5 and younger are admitted free of charge. This is a family friendly event. Music will be provided by The Captain & O’Neill Band. If you wish to purchase tickets, contact Brenda at bcsherman1521@gmail.com.
On parade day, there will be a shuttle bus available to take members from Town Hall to St. Mary’s Roman Catholic Church before Mass. This way, you can leave your vehicle at the end of the parade route, so after you are done marching, you can pick up your car to go to the Nutley Parks and Recreation building for the Post Parade Party.
