Across the globe, St. Patrick’s Day 2016 was a pageant of revelry, faith and activism. In Dublin, crowds filled the streets for a glimpse of large, colorful floats. In Northern Ireland, pilgrims walked to St. Patrick’s resting place. In New York, former protesters became marchers with an end to a ban on openly gay parade participants.

Lower Manhattan showered the U.S. women’s soccer team with confetti and a parade to celebrate their World Cup victory. It’s the first ticker-tape parade there to honor a women’s sports team. The last parade honored the New York Giants for their Super Bowl victory in 2012. The crowd was between 500,000 and 1 million.
