Run, Taste, Sip & Go Green This St. Patrick’s Day Weekend At Broadway

Posted in Featured Posts, Special Events

Sage, pickle, emerald, seaweed, mint, lime, chartreuse and seafoam… no, it's not some weird recipe that cures any winter ailment, it's just a few of the shades of green you may want to wear during St. Patrick's Day weekend at Broadway at the Beach! From green drinks and eats to sharks and shamrocks to lacing up the running shoes with fellow leprechauns, there are many ways to celebrate the green weekend with us!

But first, history…

A quick google search tells us that Saint Patrick's Day or the Feast of Saint Patrick dates back to the 17th century and is a cultural and religious celebration held every year on March 17th in celebration of the holiday's namesake, the foremost patron saint of Ireland!

From Ireland to Broadway…

Although you are encouraged to don your favorite shade of green, you don't need the luck of the Irish to enjoy all of the festivities! Here's a quick three day Broadway breakdown of how you can celebrate the holiday all in one place!

Friday:

Ready, Set… Go Green!

Before you enjoy all the tasty treats and sweet sips, you can kick off the weekend as you race around Broadway during the Shamrock-N-Roll 5K Run and Celebration on Friday, March 15th! The race begins at 6pm with the after party on The Avenue featuring live music by Backfire! For more information on the race and how to register, click here.

Saturday:

Sharks and Shamrocks

Take the weekend fun to new depths of the deep blue as you wear your green at Ripley's Aquarium during their Sharks and Shamrocks event all day! There will be special food and drink offerings throughout the venue including beer and Irish spirits plus there is a Lucky Scavenger Hunt for all ages with a chance to win a grand prize!

Sunday:

Start the day with brunch and all the games at Dave & Buster's Green Kegs and Eggs event beginning at 11am! With St. Paddy's day swag, a brunch buffet and unlimited game play at just $22 a person, we can't think of a better way to kick off the day!

But of course, the fun and festivities don't stop there!

You can also drink up some of those green brews and enjoy live entertainment at several places at Broadway including Jimmy Buffett's Margaritaville and Liberty Brewery & Grill all day!

If the pre-spring breeze is more your thing, you can enjoy the official Broadway St. Patrick's Day Celebration Street Party outside on The Avenue featuring live music from The Kevin Nichols Band from 3pm – 7pm. Of course, you can get your fill of green beer and taste some Irish treats while you take in the sounds of live music!

So whether you're a race runner, green beer sipper, Irish food taster or a live music listener, or you enjoy a little bit of everything, you can find it all this St. Patrick's Day weekend at Broadway at the Beach!
