An homage to Irish heritage in Holyoke
Originating as a modest celebration many years ago, this event has evolved into a prominent series of activities, ultimately becoming New England’s foremost Saint Patrick’s celebration.
The parade will kick off earlier this year at 11:10am from Kmart Plaza on Rt. 5 – Northampton Street and ends on High Street. Road closures typically begin around about an hour prior, so we recommend planning ahead and arriving with enough time to get to your location for viewing. Interstate 91 exits 15 and 16 are controlled by the Massachusetts State Police and are closed as conditions require.
Discover the Pioneer Valley’s top destination for shopping, dining, and entertainment. Conveniently located off I-91 and I-90, Holyoke Mall offers nearly 150 stores, eateries, and attractions—all in one place!
This unique colorful book includes our Holyoke history, the City Hall dedication, all community events throughout the year, and highlights the Masquerade Ball and the closing of the Time Capsule.
This new indoor club will feature 15 fenced courts, a pro shop, and a snack bar, offering outdoor-style play with indoor benefits. Construction starts soon, with an opening planned for late 2025 near JCPenney.
