HEALDSBURG, CA — There is a St. Patrick’s Day tradition in Healdsburg. It is known as the ‘Biggest, Shortest Parade in the World,” and was created by the late B&B Lounge owner, Bill Coleman.
Legend has it that the early-morning parade started with a small group of Healdsburg residents wishing to wake up the tourists in the nearby hotels, and each year more and more residents joined in the fun.
Today, the Healdsburg St. Patrick’s Day parade sees hundreds of people of all ages dressed in festive green. Healdsburg Community Services is proud to continue the legacy that Coleman pioneered.
