St Patrick's Day Festival

Trafalgar Square will host a main performance stage showcasing the best of Irish music and dance from traditional to contemporary from 11.30am until 6pm. View main stage running order and information about performers.

This free family day out is a fun way to experience all things Irish: food, dance, crafts, culture and music.

The Square will also host a Children’s Culture Corner with storytelling, shadow animation, dance, musical instruments and poetry and provide children with an experience that is stimulating, educational and, most importantly, lots of fun.

Also featuring throughout the day will be celebrity MC’s, special guest appearances and lots of opportunities to join in the fun including some traditional Irish ceili dancing and a mass sing-song of Irish songs!

Come and meet our Irish speakers and have a chat in Irish! They are roaming around the Square so come over and say ‘Dia Duit!’ and pick up a handout with easy phrases to learn.

The Federation of Irish Societies Health Bus will be providing a range of information and advice on health related issues. Qualified NHS nurses will also be on hand to check your blood pressure and cholesterol and answer any specific questions you have. There will also be representation from several Irish community groups and our sponsors.

All the fun is free so come and be Irish for the day!
