Green with Envy
Gallagher’s Irish Music Event takes place at 300 Pacific Coast Highway #113 in Huntington Beach. Here, you’ll enjoy two Irish bands starting at noon.

Another popular destination with no cover is Muldoon’s 39th Annual St. Patrick’s Day Party. Check out 202 Newport Center Drive in Newport Beach for one of the biggest parties in Southern California. The three-day Shamrock ‘n’ Roll event packs the Irish flair with homemade dishes, dancing, live music, and much more.
