It takes more than gusty wind and plummeting temps to slow our community’s roll! Families braved tough conditions to fill the streets for the Martin City St. Patrick’s Parade 2026 — our biggest community event of the year. Our returning emcee, Fox4’s John Holt was so entertaining and community icon Grandview C-4 Schools Superintendent Dr Kenny Rodriquez was a terrific Grand Marshall.
We are grateful for Parade Title Sponsor FlexCaves (a new commercial development coming soon to 135th Street), and all other sponsors and supporters who made the annual event, and all its traditions, possible. See you next year!

This year’s Parade theme was “Lucky Stars”, and we were lucky to enjoy so many creative ideas! Our parade winners were extraordinary, from flower bombs to a swinging, starry sky and talented Irish dancers. Congratulations!
