They say everyone is Irish on St. Patrick’s Day — and there’s no better place to embrace the Celtic spirit than on the Emerald Isle itself.
While the tradition of the St. Paddy’s parade actually began in North America when immigrants gathered to honor their homeland, Ireland now boasts its own extravagant celebrations, including Dublin’s epic three-day festival, a St. Patrick pilgrimage, and programs throughout the country jam-packed with poetry, sports, and music.
“We want our guests to immerse themselves in the vibrant culture of the Irish people,” said Derek Brennan, guest experience & guardianship manager at Anantara the Marker Dublin Hotel. “We want them to walk in the footsteps of St. Patrick — to go to the Hill of Tara, where he lit the fire to tell the chieftains of Ireland that there was a higher chieftain — and celebrate with us so we can welcome them home.”
