Enjoy a day of fun, music, and Irish culture at the St. Patrick’s Festival in St Kilda! This annual event is a vibrant celebration of Ireland’s rich heritage, offering something for everyone – and best of all, it’s completely free! The highlight of the day will be the festive parade along Acland Street, where the streets will come alive with colorful floats, traditional Irish music, marching bands, local clubs, Irish dancers and of course St Patrick himself. Bring the whole family to witness this spectacular display and feel the spirit of Ireland come to life in the heart of St Kilda. After the parade, its back to O'Donnell Gardens (beside the iconic Luna Park) to enjoy live performances from local and international Irish musicians, Irish dance displays, and a variety of cultural activities. The annual dog show kicks off around lunchtime, so bring the doggos too. Kids will love the interactive workshops, face painting, roving entertainers and magic show, while parents can savor traditional Irish food and a Guinness.
