WATCH Saint Patrick's Day Parade 2014 NYC LIVE STREAM on Monday, March 17: Time, location, Line of March & more!

New York City's annual St. Patrick's Day parade is held on Monday, March 17, 2014. The celebration kicks-off at 11 a.m. EST on 5th Avenue and 44th Street. For those who can't join the festivities in the Big Apple, watch the parade LIVE here!

As stated on the NYC Parade's official website:

The New York City St. Patrick's Day Parade is our country’s oldest and proudest Irish tradition, marching for the first time more than 250 years ago, on March 17, 1762 - fourteen years before the Declaration of Independence.

Today, the NYC Saint Patrick’s Day Parade is a registered 501(c)(3) non-profit organization. For 253 years, we have marched up 5th Ave. thanks entirely to the generous support of people like you.

The parade, which includes over 250,000 Irish Pride marchers, will make its way past St. Patrick's Cathedral up to 79th Street. This year's honorary Grand Marshal is Jack Ahearn, business manager of Local 30 of the International Union of Operating Engineers.

Here's a downloadable list of the 2014 "Line of March."

And again, the parade will air live on NBC Channel 4 (and Mstars fans can watch online here).

Happy St. Patrick's Day, everyone!
