Thousands in Co Tipperary travelled to St Patrick’s Day events to celebrate the national day.
There was a mixture of parades and family fundays for locals to attend.
It follows a two years absence of such events due to the pandemic.
For many it was a time of reflection, remembrance and also celebration.
Tipp Mid West put out a call looking for people’s help, we wanted to showcase the community spirit in the Premier County by people sending and sharing photos from the event.
Our listeners did just that, check out the photos below:
