Atlantic City is leaving open the possibility of the parade returning in 2024.
Atlantic City is not having a St. Patrick’s Day parade for a fourth consecutive year amid structural concerns with the city’s iconic boardwalk.
“We would be open to holding a St. Patrick’s Day parade next year, or again down the line, if interest is expressed,” said the spokesperson, Andrew Kramer.Two parade organizers contacted by NJ Advance Media acknowledged that the city’s boardwalk, dating to 1870 and the oldest in the nation, is in need of significant work.
“This problem is nothing that’s new. It’s something that’s been known about for many years,” Exadaktilos said.“We hope to have the structural concerns fixed in the near future ... but they do remain intact at this time as we seek additional funding to resolve the issues,” Kramer said.Tim Hawk | NJ Advance Media for NJ.com
However, regaining full use of the boardwalk is crucial for the parade’s success, said Jon Henderson, an organizer.Local businesses and other organizations that, in prior years, paid $3,500 for floats prefer the visibility of an all-boardwalk parade, Henderson said.
