We were proud to once again partner with St. Patrick's Festival, marking our 18th year providing essential event infrastructure for this iconic celebration.

Our incredible 140‑strong Actavo Events team supplied and installed:

• 13 kilometers of crowd control barriers
• 11 pedestrian crossing points
• 6 media structures to support live broadcasting
• 2 mobile grandstands for dignitaries

Once the parade concluded, the next phase of works commenced as the crew began the process of removing all infrastructure from the city centre, and worked with An Garda Síochána to ensure there was minimal disruption to the local area.

The St. Patrick’s Day Parade is a global landmark event and Actavo is very proud to be a trusted partner. We have been working with the St. Patrick’s Festival since 2009 so every year the whole process becomes more efficient. Our top priority is the safety of the public, and crowd control infrastructure is crucial to this at any public event, not to mention one as big as the St. Patrick’s Day Parade.
