Feeling lucky? Celebrate St. Patrick’s Day with these Pembroke Pines events
Happy St. Patrick’s Day, Pembroke Pines. Your city’s got several high-spirited shenanigans in store to celebrate.
The luck-themed holiday is the namesake of Ireland’s patron saint and celebrates the fifth century introduction of Christianity through the Roman British missionary.
In the Emerald Isle, St. Patrick’s Day is observed with multi-day festivals in big cities, the “greening” of national landmarks and a morning Mass.
In Pembroke Pines, we’re welcoming luck with crafts, cosplay, corned beef and cabbage, and a crisp pint of Guinness.
Check out these St. Patrick’s Day events scheduled for Tuesday, March 17:
