St Patrick's Day parades have been taking place around Ireland and the world today, with 483,000 people estimated to have attended the Dublin parade.
An extended Six-One News on RTÉ One, RTÉ News Now and online will feature coverage of the celebrations from around Ireland and the world.
You can watch the Dublin parade again on the RTÉ Player, with a repeat on RTÉ Two this evening at 5.25pm.
The theme of this year's Dublin parade was Great Things Happen When We Get Together. Over 3,500 performers participated in the parade, which featured Nicky Byrne as Grand Marshal.
Edelle Moss, Acting CEO of St Patrick's Festival, said: "Every year the parade is the highlight of what is now a multi-day national celebration and this year's St Patrick's Festival Parade was certainly one to remember.
"The atmosphere in Dublin City today really reflected the theme of this year's festival parade, Great Things Happen When We Get Together.
"Congratulations to the pageant companies, artists, bands and groups that worked so hard to deliver such fantastic performances. Many thanks to all of those who came along to enjoy the day; we were thrilled to see such a huge turnout."
