Boat Quay
This year promises to be the biggest ever St. Paddy’s Day celebration at Boat Quay, spanning three days (15-17Mar) of Irish themed merriment. Live Irish bands, dance displays and street markets can’t fail to get you in the shamrock spirit, plus you can even try your hand (or feet) at Irish sports such as hurling and Gaelic football. The weekend culminates in the St. Patrick's Day Street Festival, a family-friendly parade that co-celebrates World Down Syndrome Day, with thousands joining the dancers and drummers in the merry procession, setting out from Old Parliament House. Keep an eye out for the light display of shamrocks on the OCBC Centre – one of many famous landmarks worldwide that will ‘go green’ on St. Paddy’s Day. Check out
