Haverfordwest’s St David’s Day parade returns

Haverfordwest

An expected 700 children from Haverfordwest and beyond will take to the streets of the county town today, March 1st for a parade to celebrate St David’s Day.

The parade, organised by Pembrokeshire County Council and the Pembrokeshire Language Forum, will start at 10am from the carpark behind the former county library building on Dew Street. Led by the fantastic Samba Doc they will head down High Street, through Bridge Street and across the Old Bridge, back through Quay Street, then finishing at County Hall for an open-air jamboree led by Sian Elin Williams.

There is also a special shop window competition with a special dragon trophy for the winning display.

This year the parade will also feature the Pembrokeshire St David’s day banner which is usually permanently displayed in Saint Davids Cathedral.

The public is welcome to cheer on the parade with their banners, flags, or costumes. Following the parade, refreshments and Cawl will be available to purchase at Haverhub.
