St. Patty’s Fest in Hollywood

This holiday is all about drinking so in addition to the Irish whiskey, the event will also feature 37 breweries, 20 wineries, 10 vodka makers, gin and nonalcoholic beverages.  Complement these drinks with food and you can have a typical Irish meal of sausages, cheese, and breads.  Also, in celebration of Los Angeles, the famous PINKS Hot Dogs will be sold at the festival along with Boar’s Head deli meat sandwiches and other foods.

St. Patty’s Fest wouldn’t be complete without some live entertainment.

  • Traditional Irish Cladddagh dance company who performed for Jay Leno, Lakers, Disney, and have choreographed for motion pictures
  • The Los Angeles Police Emerald Society’s bagpipe and drum corps
  • The live music of Steel Rod, Peter Daily & The Royal Band, and Adam’s Attic
  • Drevon the Leprechaun:  Comedic Actor Drevon Cook will liven the event dressed as a short and lovable Leprechaun.

Tickets sell out every year so act fast — you won’t want to miss out on the Hollywood event that will be all smiles,  drinking, dancing, and laughing.

Price: $75 per person online with a presale discount (at the door is $155); $100 per couple. All proceeds will go to the Children’s Tumor Foundation.

Date & Time: Sunday, March 14, 2010 2-7pm
