Answer:

The first documented Saint Patrick's Day parade took place in New York City, United States, on March 17, 1762. The parade was organized by Irish soldiers who served in the British army and was held to celebrate their Irish heritage and culture. Since then, the St. Patrick's Day Parade has become a popular event celebrated in many cities around the world, particularly in Ireland and the United States.
