About the Krewe

The Krewe of Shamrock was formed in 1999.  Its 120-person membership consists of men and women, from throughout the Tampa Bay area and beyond.

The Krewe of Shamrock is Tampa's original "kilted" krewe.   While the krewe is a Celtic-themed group, Irish or Scottish ancestry is not required for membership.

The Krewe participates in several parades throughout the year, including the Gasparilla parades, the St. Patrick's Day Parade and Fantasyfest in Key West. In addition to the parades and our social activities, the krewe also supports a number of charities in the Tampa Bay region.
