The parade usually starts around 12pm. It's the same huge party every year...the day where everyone gets to be Irish for the day. We fly down the same musicians, step dancers, bag piper, etc. every year and they play and dance all day and night long.
I video tape the whole day--about 12 hours worth--and then edit the video down to 7 or 8 minutes of fun. I try and get everyone in the video.
Here is last year's video for an example of what it's like:
