You know you\u2019ve made it when millions of people worldwide throw you an insane annual party, some fifteen-hundred years after you graced the earth.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> On the 17<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">th<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> of March, pockets of the globe descend into green, white and gold-coloured madness, all in the name of the man himself. St Patrick\u2019s Day is the party of the year, and everyone\u2019s invited. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There is, of course, no better place to celebrate Ireland\u2019s celebrity saint, than the Emerald Isle itself. While Dublin seems the obvious destination for such an occasion, there are some alternatives you should consider. Whether you choose a city, town or island, you can expect packed pubs, non-stop nonsense and fun. Prepare to shroud yourself in shamrocks, release your inner leprechaun, and indulge in more \u2018craic\u2019 than you know what to do with.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><em>To help plan the perfect St Patrick&#8217;s Day adventure, <a href=\"\/shamrocker-adventures\">Shamrocker Adventures<\/a> have compiled a list of where you need to go this year.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Where will <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">you <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">paint the town green? <\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Killarney Town<\/b><\/h2>\n<figure id=\"attachment_12254\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-12254\" style=\"width: 1080px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-12254 size-full lazyload\" data-src=\"\/days-to-come\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/SRR-Killarny-National-Park-Ross-Castle-Stephen-Bridger-2016-1-min.jpg\" alt=\"Best alternative places to celebrate St Patrick\u2019s Day\" width=\"1080\" height=\"720\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.tourradar.com\/days-to-come\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/SRR-Killarny-National-Park-Ross-Castle-Stephen-Bridger-2016-1-min.jpg 1080w, https:\/\/www.tourradar.com\/days-to-come\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/SRR-Killarny-National-Park-Ross-Castle-Stephen-Bridger-2016-1-min-900x600.jpg 900w, https:\/\/www.tourradar.com\/days-to-come\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/SRR-Killarny-National-Park-Ross-Castle-Stephen-Bridger-2016-1-min-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.tourradar.com\/days-to-come\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/SRR-Killarny-National-Park-Ross-Castle-Stephen-Bridger-2016-1-min-300x200.jpg 300w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1080px) 100vw, 1080px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1080px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 1080\/720;\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-12254\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Killarny National Park \u2013 Ross Caste \u2013 Stephen Bridger &#8211; Image supplied by Shamrocker Adventures<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Who needs pots of gold and rainbows, when you\u2019ve got Killarney National Park? Scenic delights are served in abundance, from lovely lakes and deep forests to mighty mountains and magical waterfalls. Throw in some castles, grand estates and swimming deer, and you know you\u2019ve landed in a real-life fairy tale.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Nestled on the fringes of this glorious green expanse is the tourist town of Killarney, also known as \u2018The Town in the Park\u2019. Vibrant and charming, Killarney is a hub for holidaymakers, day-trippers and St Patrick\u2019s Day revellers. Bag yourself a front-row spot on Main Street for the St Patrick\u2019s Day parade, and immerse yourself in the explosion of colour, music and dance.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> A one-day-only \u2018Green 99\u2019 from an ice-cream shop is a must, as well as a visit to nearby Ross Castle to see it bathed in green light. Soak up the atmosphere in the quintessentially Irish O\u2019Connor\u2019s pub, before dancing \u2018til the wee hours with the locals in The Grand Hotel.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Blow away the cobwebs the next day in the fine, fresh air of the National Park. Visit Torc waterfall, kayak on Lough Lein, or walk the Muckross Lake Loop. Finish the day back in town with a hearty Irish meal at Cronin\u2019s restaurant. <em>Find your next adventure to Killarney Town with Shamrocker <a href=\"\/t\/20068\">here<\/a>.\u00a0\u00a0<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Galway <\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once a small fishing village, Galway has since bloomed into a bustling harbour city. Galway is home to the iconic \u2018claddagh\u2019 ring, which denotes a lady\u2019s relationship status based on the hand it is worn, and the direction of the heart. Galway\u2019s Latin Quarter is sure to steal your heart, with its pretty boutiques and traditional pubs behind quirky, colourful facades. Once you\u2019re in, there\u2019s little excuse to leave. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The St Patrick\u2019s Day shenanigans officially start at 11.30am with a parade through the city centre, where the elaborate costumes, theatre, and drummers create a full-on festival experience. \u00a0Enjoy the mega-lively beer garden at O\u2019Connell\u2019s on Eyre Square, and look out for the fountain lit green, as per tradition. Spend the rest of the day people-watching and pub-hopping, from The Quays Bar and The King\u2019s Head, to the more traditional Monroe&#8217;s or Tig Coili. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For a much-needed kebab before bed, The Charcoal Grill is a local favourite. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To restore some balance after the Guinness-fuelled celebrations, visit the Galway City Museum for a culture-fix, then treat yourself to a civilised seafood lunch on one of Galway\u2019s oldest streets at The Seafood Bar at\u00a0Kirwans.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Inis M\u00f3r \u00a0<\/b><\/h2>\n<figure id=\"attachment_12252\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-12252\" style=\"width: 1080px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-12252 size-full lazyload\" data-src=\"\/days-to-come\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/SRR-Inis-Mor-Pheobe-Greenacre-2014-8-min.jpg\" alt=\"Best alternative places to celebrate St Patrick\u2019s Day\" width=\"1080\" height=\"810\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.tourradar.com\/days-to-come\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/SRR-Inis-Mor-Pheobe-Greenacre-2014-8-min.jpg 1080w, https:\/\/www.tourradar.com\/days-to-come\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/SRR-Inis-Mor-Pheobe-Greenacre-2014-8-min-900x675.jpg 900w, https:\/\/www.tourradar.com\/days-to-come\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/SRR-Inis-Mor-Pheobe-Greenacre-2014-8-min-1024x768.jpg 1024w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1080px) 100vw, 1080px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1080px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 1080\/810;\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-12252\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Inis Mor &#8211; Pheobe Greenacre &#8211; Image supplied by Shamrocker Adventures<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Aran Islands are a wee slice of Irish paradise, and Inis M\u00f3r is the largest of them all. The ferry transports you over the Atlantic, and back in time. Remnants of ancient history are scattered across the island, and little exertion of the imagination is required to picture life as once was. The locals speak native Irish and the pace of life is palpably slower. That said, they certainly know how to throw a good old knees-up for St Pat\u2019s! <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Partygoers follow the parade across the island from 1pm, before swarming to the pubs to continue the celebration. Try Tigh Joe Mac\u2019s for a crackin\u2019 pint and atmosphere, and Joe Watty\u2019s for tip-top pub grub in the lovely garden out front. The small scale and sense of community deliver a totally different experience to the cramped streets in the cities and towns. It\u2019s traditional, it\u2019s remote, and the craic still flows are freely as Guinness.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dust yourself off the next day with a bike ride along the rolling country paths which intersect the island. The stunning sheer cliffs and prehistoric fort of D\u00fan Aonghasa are a sight to behold.<\/span><\/p>\n<div>\r\n<hr style=\"width: 100px; height: 2px; border: 0; background-color: #222; margin-left: 0; opacity: 1\" >\r\n<p style=\"margin-top: 1em;\"><em>See Also: <\/em><strong><a href=\"\/days-to-come\/ireland-vs-scotland\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Ireland Vs Scotland: Where Will You Go?<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\r\n<hr style=\"width: 100px; height: 2px; border: 0; background-color: #222; margin-left: 0; opacity: 1\" ><\/div>\n<h2><b>Dublin<\/b><\/h2>\n<figure id=\"attachment_12251\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-12251\" style=\"width: 1080px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-12251 size-full lazyload\" data-src=\"\/days-to-come\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/SRR-Dublin-The-Glasspassage-2016-8-min.jpg\" alt=\"Best alternative places to celebrate St Patrick\u2019s Day\" width=\"1080\" height=\"720\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.tourradar.com\/days-to-come\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/SRR-Dublin-The-Glasspassage-2016-8-min.jpg 1080w, https:\/\/www.tourradar.com\/days-to-come\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/SRR-Dublin-The-Glasspassage-2016-8-min-900x600.jpg 900w, https:\/\/www.tourradar.com\/days-to-come\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/SRR-Dublin-The-Glasspassage-2016-8-min-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.tourradar.com\/days-to-come\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/SRR-Dublin-The-Glasspassage-2016-8-min-300x200.jpg 300w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1080px) 100vw, 1080px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1080px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 1080\/720;\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-12251\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Dublin \u2013The Glasspassage &#8211; Image supplied by Shamrocker Adventures<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you do decide to stick to the capital, you will not be disappointed. The city is awash with painted faces and novelty wigs, and the antics are brilliantly bonkers. The parade starts at midday, and squeezing into a pub is the challenge thereafter. Avoid the over-hyped chaos of Temple Bar and instead base yourself in the pubs around Dame Lane for toe-tapping tunes. Head to Harcourt Street for a trendy or tracky clubbing experience, before indulging in a classic late-night junk food binge at Rick\u2019s Burgers. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Nurse the inevitable hangover the next day by strolling through St Stephen\u2019s Green, or with a hair of the dog at the Guinness Storehouse. Top up your intake of the famous stout, with a Beef &amp; Guinness pie at The Hairy Lemon.<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_12255\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-12255\" style=\"width: 1080px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-12255 size-full lazyload\" data-src=\"\/days-to-come\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/St-Patricks-Day-Dublin-min.jpg\" alt=\"Best alternative places to celebrate St Patrick\u2019s Day\" width=\"1080\" height=\"806\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.tourradar.com\/days-to-come\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/St-Patricks-Day-Dublin-min.jpg 1080w, https:\/\/www.tourradar.com\/days-to-come\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/St-Patricks-Day-Dublin-min-900x672.jpg 900w, https:\/\/www.tourradar.com\/days-to-come\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/St-Patricks-Day-Dublin-min-1024x764.jpg 1024w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1080px) 100vw, 1080px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1080px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 1080\/806;\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-12255\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">St Patrick&#8217;s Day Dublin &#8211; Image supplied by Shamrocker Adventures<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Then, all that\u2019s left is a toast to St Patrick, to say \u201cthanks a million\u201d for the fun, frolicking, and unforgettable craic.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>St Patrick is an absolute legend.
