America goes green! NY Governor Kathy Hochul, NYC Mayor Eric Adams and millions of others take to streets across US for St Patrick's Day celebrations
Millions of Americans took to streets and bars around the country to celebrate the start of St Patrick's Day weekend, even turning an entire river green.
The annual celebration of the patron saint of Ireland is traditionally held on March 17, but with it being on a Sunday this year the party started early to keep that day for religious services.
New York City held its St Patrick's Day parade for the 263rd year with 150,000 people marching 35 blocks up Fifth Avenue and two million watching from the street or on TV.
Governor Kathy Hochul and Mayor Eric Adams joined crowds to watch the parade that kicked off at 11am at 44th Street and took four hours to reach its end at 79th Street.

NEW YORK, UNITED STATES - MARCH 16: Saint Patrick's Day Parade celebration is held on 5th Avenue, in Manhattan
Many in the crowd wore green and waved Irish flags as they watched marching bands and other groups walk by, led by grand marshal Margaret Timoney, chief executive of Heineken USA and Irish native.
Others were already in one of NYC's hundreds of Irish pubs for the other traditional part of the celebration, and millions more will join them later in the day and on Sunday.
The parade has been held since 1762 - 14 years before the US gained its independence - and the first reference to the holiday being celebrated in the city was in 1756.
Meanwhile in Savannah, Georgia, another very old parade took place, claiming to be in its 200th year, with 300 entries marching through the city's old town.
The party started at 7am for some, with locals sharing their first beer being cracked open earlier than almost any other day of the year.
