St Patrick's Day
Whilst Dublin is the epicentre of St Patrick's Day celebrations, London, as with many other major world cities, will be joining the festivities too.
Wherever you are in London, you are never too far from an Irish bar, which will be by far the best place to enjoy the obligatory pint of Guinness and evening celebrations on the 17th.
On Sunday 16th March the St Patrick's Day Parade takes to the streets of London, along with several staged events across the city with Irish music, food, crafts, culture and dance.
Also on the 16th March the St Patrick's Day Festival takes place in Trafalgar Square, Covent Garden and Leicester Square. This is a free family event to allow you to experience Irish culture, food, dance and music. You can also be fairly sure Guinness will be avaliable for a traditional Irish Pint.
