St. Patrick's Day in Brussels


This year promises to be the best ever celebration of all things Irish by incorporating the best sport, food, music, and of course, drink!

There will be a full day of activities with something to appeal to everyone. Sports will be the first order of the day as Irish athletes demonstrate their national games with junior and senior gaelic football and hurling matches. Want to give them a try? Nothing simpler. Demonstrations and tutorials on Gaelic Football and Hurling will take place throughout the day at the football pitch in Parc Cinquantenaire.

Kids will be looking Irish in no time with face-painting in the afternoon.

And of course, no St. Patrick’s Day celebration would be complete without a few choice beverages. Our pitchside pub will feature legendary Guinness draught, Celtic Cider in pint bottles and Lucky Stripe lager so no one will go thirsty.After the sports head indoors to Espace 53 under the Cinquantenaire arch for Irish story telling, live music, prize draws an Irish dancing.
