NEW YORK (PIX11) – March marks the month of spring and shamrocks for annual St. Patrick's celebrations throughout New York City. While the New York City Saint Patrick's Day Parade won't kick off until March 17, there are many other celebrations for the Patron Saint planned for this Sunday throughout the city. In Manhattan, runners will make their way through Washington Heights starting at 9 a.m. for the NYRR Washington Heights Salsa, Blues, and Shamrocks 5K. Over in Staten Island, revealers will take to the streets for the 61st annual St. Patrick's Day Parade beginning at 12:30 p.m. This year will likely be the area's largest shamrock celebration, with multiple groups marching for the first time including the Pride Center of Staten Island. Meanwhile, Queens residents will gather for the 26th annual St. Pats for All Parade beginning at 12 p.m. in Sunnyside. The march was created as a response to LGBTQ groups being excluded from the Fifth Avenue parade, according to the organization's website.
