... route. The parade starts at 11 a.m., but people start lining up well before that in order to claim a prime viewing spot.

The sidewalk near St. Patrick’s Cathedral tends to be one of the most popular spots as does the area near the grandstands between 62nd and 64th Streets. The seats in the grandstand are for ticket holders only, but the sidewalk around the grandstand is a good place to watch as the participants perform for the judges.

A number of authentic pubs are located near the parade route, so many parade goers stop in for a pint either before or after the parade.
