    Limerick's parade has been nothing short of a disgrace for the past number of years, completely prioritised quantity over quality and as a result it was terribly boring, hopefully this will be a new departure.

    Went out to see the band parade last year. Great time seeing all the different groups.

    Left the Paddies parade after five minutes. If I wanted to see taxi after taxi I'd go home to the village parade.

    Hopefully. The way they event manage leaves a lot to be desired. According to someone in the Council, its always last minute plans thrown together and wholly unprofessional lacking any solid information.

    It sounds good so far anyway. Hopefully there will be more "festivities" surrounding the weekend other than the parade. They should try to bring so events into the city for the weekend such as the French Market, some fun fair activities and such.

    Why not even organise a family tree lineage type stand to be there so people can trace where their ancestors may have originated exactly or where their families may have gone to?
