More than 40,000 people gathered in Limerick on Sunday for the International Band Parade, which saw musicians from across the world perform on the streets of the city.

Always a highlight of the St Patrick’s Day festivities in Limerick, this year’s event saw the University of Southern Mississippi crowned overall winners.

The final performance of the day, the 160 strong band proved they were certainly worth the wait as they enthralled spectators with a rousing version of Michael Jackson’s classic hit Thriller.
