We are pleased to present the Golden Harp Award for ‘Most Spectacular' parade entry to Cape Cod Irish Village and Cape Cod Firewood!
A golden harp typically symbolizes prosperity, divine connection, and artistic excellence. It is a prominent, beloved symbol of Irish heritage, resilience, music, and identity.
Congratulations capecodirishvillage and capecodfirewood1 ! ☘️
We are pleased to present the Shanachie Award for ‘Best Representation of Parade Theme' to Sk8 Cape Cod and Cape Cod Roller Derby!
A shanachie (or seanchaí) is a traditional Gaelic storyteller or historian from Ireland and Scotland, serving as an oral repository of old tales, family histories, genealogies, and lore. Historically, they were vital for preserving culture. The tradition continues today, with modern storytellers keeping the spirit alive. Pronunciation: SHAN-uh-kee.
Congratulations Sk84capecod and Cape Cod Roller Derby! ☘️
We are pleased to present the Kells Award for ‘Most Artistic use of Design' to St. Pius X School!
The Book of Kells is a very old, beautifully decorated book made by monks around 800 AD. It’s a handwritten copy of the four Gospels from the Bible. What makes it famous isn’t just the text—it’s the art. The pages are filled with bright colors, detailed patterns, and tiny designs of animals, people, and symbols, all done by hand.
Today, it’s kept in Trinity College Dublin, where people can see it as one of the greatest masterpieces of medieval art.
Congratulations St. Pius X School! ☘️
We are pleased to present the Oscar Wilde Award for ‘Most Whimsical’ parade entry to Freedom Labradors!
Oscar Wilde was an Irish author, poet and playwright. Awards in his honor celebrate creative energy, Irish arts and cultural pursuits.
Congratulations Freedom Labradors! ☘️
The Cape Cod St. Patrick’s Parade Committee is so impressed by the creativity of your entries! We’ll be announcing our 2026 award winners this afternoon… stay tuned! ☘️
