Saint Patrick's Day festivities have all become one and the same, wear green, get drunk, don't get pinched, you know the drill. What many folks don't know is that there is a unique festival that takes over Mansfield every St. Patricks Day weekend. This pickle festival has pickle lovers from all over flocking to the Dallas Fort-Worth area, clearly, it's a pretty big dill.

Mansfield is proud to be the pickle capital of Texas, so of course, they capitalize on it. They have Pickle Queens who wear green dresses and rock red wigs, they also have a Pickle Parade.

On Friday, March 13th and Saturday, March 14th, Downtown Mansfield will be transformed into a pickle paradise. It's free to attend, but you'll want to sign up for email updates here so you can participate in the Beer Keg Races, or sign up your dog for the Pet Parade, and even your little one for the baby parade.

Over 50 vendors will be there feeding and selling you everything your little pickle loving heart desires.
