Tralee to introduce ASD-friendly St Patrick's Day parade for people with sensory issues

The town of Tralee in Co Kerry, like many others, is preparing to host its first St Patrick’s Day parade since the pandemic emerged.

However, this year, they’re incorporating a new feature - one that they hope will encourage everyone to get involved.

Tralee’s St Patrick’s Day parade for 2022 will kick off from its usual spot of John Joe Sheehy Road and make its way through the town. At one section, though, between Moyderwell School and Upper Castle Street, participants are asked to dim down their sound in a bid to be autism spectrum disorder-friendly.
