St. Paddy’s Weekend 2021

Although the annual St. Patrick’s Day parade has been called off for this Saturday, March 13, Downtown is still THE place to celebrate the days leading up to the holiday. So put on your runners (Irish speak for tennis shoes) and hit the footpath (yep, that’s our sidewalks) to experience everything our neighborhood has to offer on a balmy March day. So many choices, so much fun!

NOTE: While the City has not authorized open streets nor open containers for St. Patrick’s Day celebrations this weekend, downtown businesses will be providing as much safe indoor and outdoor seating as possible.

Businesses are listed by their opening times, so you can plan your stops.
