There's a new start time for the Boston St. Patrick's Day Parade as authorities look to limit "out-of-control behavior."

Yes, Saturday is the big day when the streets of downtown Newport will be stuffed with parade-goers of all ages celebrating the holiday, and there will be plenty happening both before and after the bands, floats and marchers have passed through, but the weekend is full of events to get you into the spirit.

Also on tap for March 14-16: the Totally Rad Vintage Fest, Milwaukee Horror Con, Ice Dance International's "SOAR!" and Suhoor Food Truck Fest.
