World’s Smallest St. Patrick’s Day Parade and .5K Race
Coming March, 2022
Enterprise is the official Guinness World Record Holder for the “World’s Smallest Saint Patrick’s Day Parade.” A person of Irish descent, generally dressed in festive garb and carrying a large Irish flag, is the only person in the parade. He, or she, walks one block from the courthouse to the Boll Weevil Monument and back to the courthouse. The parade has enjoyed national, as well as local attention and draws many visitors each year. An addition was made in 2018 to add the smallest road race, a 0.5K after the parade to keep the small theme going and involve the large crowds who attend the event every year.
