St. Patricks Day is once more present on Jackson, Mississippi. Guests, visitors, spectators and enthusiasts are sure to flock again at this annual festive celebration. The usual St. Patricks Day symbols of anything green and gold, shamrocks, clovers, leprechaun mascots and good lucks are sure to swarm the areas as people dance and get crazy with this wonderful parade event.
There will be lots of performances, dance scores and musical extravaganzas on this one-day event. Talents in their wonderful and colorful costumes will entertain the visitors with their surprise numbers. The Festival is in commemoration to Irelands patron saint St. Patrick. It is also held in many states in America since Irish population is reportedly growing in these areas.
Even Americans (non-Irish) embrace this festival because of the richness and the interesting history behind it. St. Patrick, the national saint of Ireland is responsible to bring Christianity to Ireland. He was also responsible for driving away all snakes out of Ireland that is why there is no single snake that can be found in Ireland up to now. A snake or a serpent is an ancient symbol of paganism that was once the dominant religion in Ireland.
Mals St. Paddys Day is truly an event not to miss! It is going to be broadcasted live on TV stations and radio stations across Mississippi and the whole country. Media, Actors and VIPs are sure to be spotted on this Festival. Expect young adults adorn in their fun Festival accessories and memorabilia in this show.

The Festivals proceeds will go to the Blair E. Batson Memorial Hospital for Children. An equally fun and refreshing after party will follow at the famous Hal and Mal (The Brothers) pub after the parade.
