It may fall on a Monday this year, but that won’t stop the diehards from celebrating good ol’ St. Paddy. Here are a few places that are paying homage to Ireland’s patron saint.

St. Patrick’s Day Irish Dancers

If you’d like to celebrate your love of Ireland without having to pop into your local pub, stop by the winter garden at Eighth Avenue Place at 11:30AM on March 17th for a performance by the Irwin School of Irish Dance. Details here.

We’re lucky enough to have two Ceili’s in the downtown core, one on 8th Ave and one on 4th Ave.

St. Paddy’s Pubcrawl

When one pub is just not enough, perhaps a pubcrawl is the answer.  There are several taking place on March 15 and 17th with stops at The Roadhouse, Ceili’s on 4th, and more.

Live Music

The Palomino
