How To Celebrate St. Patrick’s Day in Las Vegas

There’s an old Irish saying, “In heaven there is no beer…that’s why we drink ours here.” While the originator of that saying was probably a quirky Irishman from the shores of the Éire, you can’t beat Las Vegas when it comes to throwing big and splashy St. Patrick’s Day bashes with some of the finest stouts, whiskey, food, festivals, and music.

Parades and Festivities in Downtown Las Vegas

Fremont Street in downtown Las Vegas is St. Patrick’s Day central including the Fremont Street Experience ShamRock with bands, authentic Irish entertainment, live tribute bands, and lots of bars offering drink specials. Plus, you won’t want to miss the annual Las Vegas Valley Firefighter’s St. Patrick’s Day Invitational Parade beginning at noon on Fremont and Main St. For more information on specific dates and times visit Las Vegas How To Guide.
