With painted faces, green beads and cream-colored Aran jumpers, thousands of Chicagoans gathered on sunny sidewalks for the Northwest Side Irish Parade on Sunday afternoon.
Organizations from Girl Scouts to Irish dancers to the Libertarian Party of Chicago marched along the route, which started at William J. Onahan Elementary School in the Norwood Park East neighborhood. Some attendees wore coats over green sweatshirts or flannels, but many celebrated the over-40-degree temperatures with fewer layers.
“I wouldn’t be surprised if one of us jumps in and starts doing an Irish jig with one of the groups that goes by,” Waltz said. Like other parades around the city, it was canceled in 2020 and 2021. Several families recalled attending the festivities in 2019 or earlier, a tradition interrupted by the pandemic.
