The St. Patrick's Day festivities are ramping up across the country with a slew of events and mouth-watering specials to honor the emerald isle's most beloved holiday. The Valley's residents need not rely on four-leaf clovers or leprechaun magic to find a good time this weekend. Establishments from Hash Kitchen to The Phoenician Tavern are rolling out the green carpet with specials galore, as reported by ABC15.
Serving up a shamrock shake on the whimsical side of things is The Rosticceria, with a waved magic wand over their usual offerings to present 'The St. Patrick’s Day Gelato Shake' from March 15-17. Combining traditional Italian flair with a touch of Irish luck, this concoction is bound to be a sweet rendezvous with St. Paddy himself. Meanwhile, over at Los Sombreros, sippers can enjoy $5 green house margaritas on March 17, the Day of the Irish.
If you're hanging your hat in the Santa Clarita Valley, the celebrations are equally rambunctious. The Signal has the scoop on where to flaunt your finest green attire while noshing on traditional eats like corned beef and cabbage and toasting with freshly released beers. Pocock Brewing's St. Patrick’s Weekend Festival is a two-day affair, from March 16 to 17, packed with live music and an elevated Irish menu. Maginn’s Irish Pub, the local gem of Old Town Newhall, is dishing out fish and chips accompanied by the tunes of authentic Irish bands.
Not to be overshadowed by pub grub, the upscale Le Chene French Cuisine is blending culinary borders with their rendition of Corned Beef and Cabbage, while a bona fide Irish bagpiper keeps the ambiance as authentic as a stroll through Dublin. For those looking to dance a jig or two, the St. Patty’s Swing Dance Party at American Legion Post 507 is the place to lace-up your swankiest swing shoes, with rockabilly band The Rayford Bros setting the soundtrack for the evening.
This melange of events demonstrates the universal appeal of St. Patrick's Day – a day when everyone can don a touch of green and bask in the joyous spirit that the holiday brings, regardless the cultural background. The fusion of festivities in the Valley and Santa Clarita, where the drinks are as verdant as the rolling hills of Ireland and the music just as lively, promises a St. Patrick’s Day weekend full of fun and flair. And for those animal lovers out there, the Ken & Joe’s Powersports Dealership is the unlikely host for a puppy adoption event that will surely add another layer of warmth to your holiday.
