Grand Marshals were aerial dance and contemporary circus specialists Fidget Feet, and the parade featured a gala of colour and adrenaline pumping music including last year’s Best Float winner สปMusic Generation Limerick Cityสผ, local marching bands, colourful members of Limerickโ€™s international community and a community youth choir from Ontario in Canada. This year’s Flag Ambassadors were the students from Colรกiste Nano Nagle who carried Ireland’s largest tricolour.
