We know where the best shenanigans and craic will be in Brisbane this Saint Patrick’s Day – Finn McCool’s in Fortitude Valley. 

That’s because Brisbane’s number one Irish bar will be taking over Brunswick Street Mall for a huge street party with live entertainment across two stages. 

The party starts on Saturday, 16th March at 10am with the Parade Day After Party, featuring live entertainment with The Gathering, Limerick, Tartan Shamrock and Johnny Jump Up. But that’s not all, there will also be pop up bars, Irish pipe bands, Irish dancers and more. 

As if that’s not enough, they’re doing it all over again on Sunday, Saint Patrick’s Day. Finns shared: “On March 17th, we have a HUGE day of festivities planned with our doors opening from 10am. Have double the fun with live entertainment across two stages all day long.” 

You’ll have a chance to once again catch lively sets from crowd favourites The Gathering, Limerick, Tartan Shamrock and Johnny Jump Up! Once again there will be Irish dancers, pop up bars and a performance by the brilliant Queensland Irish Association Pipe Band.

Shamrocks, shenanigans and a whole lot of craic await.

Meanwhile, on the Gold Coast at Finn McCool’s Surfers Paradise, there is also an epic weekend of celebrations planned from 15th to 17th March. With live entertainment all weekend, you can catch Limerick in action on Friday, and Jumpstart Duo, Tales of Strangers and DJ Kimmy J providing the tunes on Saturday, with the bar staying open till 5am. And on Sunday, St Patrick’s Day, you can catch Drunken Midnight Choir, Tales of Strangers, The Gathering, DJ Kimmy J, Irish dancers and the Gold Coast Pipe Band. 

Finn McCool’s is the destination for the best Guinness, live entertainment, and great craic!
