The Savannah St. Patrick?s Day celebration and parade is one of the largest in the United States, annually drawing over 400,000 visitors during the week of the holiday; regularly doubling the City?s population. The St. Patrick?s Day activity primarily takes place along River Street (on the Savannah River) and the City?s Historic District. Memorial Stadium is approximately five minutes from River Street and shuttle buses will be run to and from River Street and other locations and the stadium. Given the number of visitors in Savannah for St. Patrick?s Day, the participation of the Irish and USA national teams, and television and other media support, the match is expected to be the largest attended Rugby League event ever held in the US. The Savannah St. Patrick?s Day match represents a unique opportunity to publicly present rugby league to an audience in the State of Georgia.
