As the calendar turns from February to March, everyone is looking to move past the cold energy of winter and looks ahead to spring, warmer temperatures and good times. And in Spartanburg, that energy kicks off right around St. Patrick’s Day.
ST. PATRICK’S PARTIES
The celebration will be in full effect in Downtown Spartanburg as Delaney’s Irish Pub rings in the day with the luck of the Irish on March 15, 2025.
With Irish in its name, Delaney’s steps it up for St. Patrick’s, hosting their annual Shenanigans on the Square, a full-day event featuring live music, drink and food specials and special attractions for families.
You’ll be able to find plenty of Guinness at Delaney’s, but they’ll also be serving up the kinds of traditional dishes you’d expect to find on St. Patrick’s day menus like bangers and mash (sausage and mashed potatoes), Shepherd’s pie and the ultimate St. Pat’s dish, corned beef and cabbage.
Best of all, Delaney’s serves up these Irish favorites all year round so you can get a taste of St. Patrick’s Day whenever you crave it.
A stone’s throw away, FR8yard will (weather permitting) be open for all your St. Patrick’s festivities.
Landrum’s St. Patrick’s Day party will feature a parade along Trade Street, food trucks, kids’ attractions, Leprechaun photo booth, live music, and more.
And in Woodruff, Conner Flynn’s Public House, a new take on an Irish Pub, will host will host a daylong St. Patrick’s Day Festival packed with live music, bounce houses, dunk tank, and even more family-friendly activities.
FR8yard will host its annual Yard Malarkey, complete with green beer, live music, and other special shenanigans like a Lucky Charms eating contest and more, including a special Reuben Egg Roll on the food menu.
