MONTAUK, NY — One of the East End's most well-loved events is set to unfold in all its green glory soon, as the the 58th Annual St. Patrick's Day Parade takes place in Montauk.

The parade will kick off from Edgemere Road at noon on Sunday, March 22; the parade runs up Edgemere Road and then turns on to Main Street, past the reviewing stand on the green under the "watchful eye of MC Rick White," and finishes at the end of Main Street by the IGA, organizers said.

The parade, organizers proudly add, is New York's second largest St. Patrick's Day Parade. This year's grand marshal is Charlie Morici Sr.
