St. Patrick's Day in Limerick is something else. The city comes alive in a way that's hard to describe until you've experienced it. The parade through the city centre draws thousands of people, the pubs are packed, the music is everywhere, and the atmosphere is genuinely electric. If you're planning to be in Limerick on March 17th, here's what you need to know about getting around.

Road Closures Change Everything

The parade route brings significant road closures across the city centre from the morning onwards. O'Connell Street, Patrick Street, and several surrounding roads will be restricted or closed entirely for parts of the day. If you're driving, parking will be a nightmare. If you're relying on public transport, expect delays and packed buses.

The easiest solution is a pre-booked taxi with Limerick City Taxis. Our drivers know exactly which routes are affected and how to navigate around them. We'll get you as close to the action as possible without the headache of driving yourself.

Getting to the Parade

The parade starts at noon, so late morning is the busiest time for transport across the city. Book your pickup in advance to guarantee availability. Whether you're coming from a hotel outside the city centre, a house in the suburbs, or heading in from a nearby town, we'll have you there in plenty of time.

A Night to Remember

St. Patrick's Day doesn't end when the parade does. Limerick's pubs and restaurants are in full swing well into the evening, with live music sessions running across the city. If you're heading out for the night, book your return journey in advance. It's one of the busiest nights of the year for taxis, so leaving it to chance isn't worth the risk.

Groups Welcome
