ORLANDO, Fla. – Get ready to jump on the St. Paddy’s party wagon at Raglan Road Irish Pub & Restaurant in Disney Springs Friday, March 14, through Monday, March 17. Because (obviously) this quintessential Irish holiday is too much fun to limit to one day, the annual Mighty St. Patrick’s Festival at Florida’s most authentic Irish pub serves up a long weekend of live Irish music, dance, modern Irish eats, drinks, and more.
That’s four full days to celebrate St. Paddy’s with notable Irish bands flown in for the event including headliners Screaming Orphans—the chart-topping all-sister band from Donegal, and Clada—a popular traditional Irish folk band from Galway.
The Mighty Festival will take its live Irish music and dance to the Disney Springs street outside Raglan Road with five outside bars, new St. Paddy’s merchandise, Celtic face painting, gift competitions, and plenty of giveaways. This year’s round-the-clock musical performances on three stages will invite guests to join in the toe-tapping, hand-clapping revelry. Don’t miss:
Screaming Orphans – Known worldwide for their award-winning sound melding pop songs with trad Irish music, these sisters’ trademark four-part harmony amps up the incomparable vibe.
Clada – Four trad Irish musicians from Galway play fresh, funky tunes.
Men of Aran and Friends —Legends of the Irish trad world, the Men have toured, performed and recorded with many Irish music luminaries.
Clann Uí Huiginn (Higgins Clan) – This multi-instrumentalist family from Downpatrick ramps up the fun with energetic reels jigs, smooth ballads, and foot-stomping marches.
Briste – An inspiring all-female trio blending their uniquely rich musical backgrounds for a fresh, exciting sound.
The Road West – Hailing from Kerry, Mayo, and Cork this talented trio delivers a dazzling mix of trad and contemporary Irish music.
Northern Crossing – Exciting three-piece traditional Irish music ensemble from Glasgow, Downpatrick, and Belfast.
The Raglan Road Irish Dancers, a talented troupe from the world’s greatest Irish dance shows wow audiences with their jigs and reels and improbably high kicks.
“Where else would you find this extraordinary Irish talent? Nowhere but in Ireland or at Raglan Road!” says pub General Manager Rachael Conroy, who grew up in Tullamore, Ireland, and recalls many a family St. Patrick’s Day gathering. “Everyone in the family is welcome to join in our St. Paddy’s Day fun, so come celebrate our favorite Irish holiday!”
Revelers can enjoy Raglan Road’s Signature brew or whiskey flight, hand-crafted cocktails, and new bites with Irish roots like bacon and cabbage mac ‘n cheese bites and a vegan “Hottie Pie,” plus popular favorites like shepherd’s pie, lamb stew, and fish & chips. Those authentic fish & chips also are available to go at the pub’s adjacent Cooke’s of Dublin counter-service eatery next to the restaurant’s Hole in the Wall bar. Raglan Road also will serve its Rollicking Weekend Brunch Saturday and Sunday, March 15 and 16. On St. Paddy’s Day, the kitchen will offer two brunch items along with the All-Day menu.
At Raglan Road’s Shop for Ireland boutique, St. Paddy’s accessories are hot, and guests will find an array of authentic Irish clothing and gifts including Celtic jewelry, apparel, hats, home goods, baby clothing and toys. The shop is one of few in the world licensed to sell direct Guinness merchandise including a travel mug shaped like a pint of Guinness.
