Irish Festival dates and locations across the U.S.A

As St. Patrick’s Day only arrives once a year on March 17, we thought you’d be interested in knowing you can get your Irish on year-round attending some of the biggest and most popular Irish Festivals from around the United States. And depending where you are in the country, the weather can put a damper on celebrations. So perhaps that is why Irish Festivals take place in the Spring, Summer and Fall. In fact one of the biggest Irish Festivals is the Milwaukee Irish Fest which takes place every August on the shore of Lake Michigan in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Whichever Irish festival you attend you’ll be sure to find inspirational Irish music headliners, unique and awe-inspiring vendors, Irish dancing, Irish culture and fun and delectable food options.

Some of the events available at your local Irish fair may include the following:

• Irish Dancing
• Irish Wolfhound Dog show
• Irish music bands
• Trad Music
• Bag Pipers
• Savory Bangers and Mash Pizzas
• Harp, fiddle and flute music shows
