ST PATRICK’S DAY is the perfect opportunity to gather your friends and family for a celebration full of joy, laughter, and plenty of green!
Whether you’re Irish or simply love the festive spirit, here’s how to host a St. Patrick’s Day bash that will have everyone feeling lucky…
Set the Scene with Green
Transform your space into a St. Patrick’s Day haven with green decorations. Think shamrock garlands, green balloons, and fairy lights to create a warm, festive atmosphere. For table settings, you can go all out with gold and green plates, cups, and napkins—add some fun with leprechaun hats and clover-shaped confetti.
Fun Food & Drinks
Food is a key part of any celebration, and St. Patrick’s Day is no exception. Serve up hearty Irish dishes with plenty of soda bread. If you’re in the mood for something sweet, mint chocolate desserts and green cupcakes are a hit! For drinks, go beyond the typical pint of Guinness—consider making green cocktails like a Shamrock Sour.
Dress the Part
Encourage guests to embrace the St. Patrick’s Day spirit by wearing their best green outfits. From casual green tees to more elaborate costumes, this is your chance to get creative! You can even add some fun accessories like leprechaun hats, green sunglasses, or shamrock necklaces to make everyone feel part of the celebration.
Set Up Fun Games & Activities
Keep the party fun and interactive with a few games. Set up a DIY “pot of gold” scavenger hunt, or organize a St. Patrick’s Day trivia contest to test your guests’ knowledge of Irish culture. You could also host a limerick contest for some creative laughs or challenge everyone to a game of “pin the Shamrock on the Leprechaun.”
Party Favors & Goodie Bags
Send your guests home with a little something to remember the day. Create fun goodie bags filled with mini bottles of Irish whiskey, chocolate coins, or small shamrock decorations. It’s a nice touch that will leave everyone feeling lucky long after the party ends.
You can pick up everything needed from stores at Wellington Square including Katie’s Kards, B&M and Iceland!
