70 FLAGS • 70 YEARS • ONE REMARKABLE LITTLE TOWN
The Shrine of St. Patrick will celebrate its 70th anniversary on St. Patrick’s Day—Wednesday, March 17, 2027. Irish Flag Avenue invites the community to mark the milestone through Irish heritage, local stories, faith, and family.
Seventy original flags will turn the road through St. Patrick into a colorful avenue of Irish and Celtic heritage.
Every flag tells a story. Pick the idea that fits yours.
Celtic Art, Saints & Faith — Celtic patterns, crosses, and saints rooted in faith.
Family, County & Clan — Your family name, your Irish county, your clan crest.
Memorial & Community — Honor someone special, or celebrate Clancy road bowling.
Business Sponsors — Put your business or organization behind the avenue.

If the community reaches 70 flags, St. Patrick may be able to pursue Guinness World Records recognition for the most Irish flags displayed along a street for St. Patrick’s Day. Reaching the goal is the first step; any official record attempt would still require review and verification by Guinness World Records. Help us fill the avenue and make March 17, 2027 a milestone to remember.
