Listowel blew the rain away with an explosion of green and great craic as the town enjoyed one of its biggest St Patrick’s Day parades in years.

They came out in droves from all around to enjoy a parade on a theme of ‘ShamRock ‘n’ Roll’ from 12.30pm today, amid more entries than ever before seemingly.
