Regardless of whether you’re Irish, St. Patrick’s Day is a fantastic celebration in Alhambra and the entire Los Angeles area. Head to these local bars for a fun day of festivities.
Limerick’s Tavern
Limerick’s Tavern is one of the few Irish pubs in downtown Alhambra. It’s a fun spot no matter the occasion, but patrons go all-out for St. Patrick’s Day. There will be live music and a special menu on for the event.
There are no tickets, but be sure to make a reservation in advance because the bar and restaurant fill up quickly. If you just want to come for drinks, arrive early and snag a space in the bar area. If you’re planning to enjoy the party with a meal, you’ll want to call a few weeks ahead of the big day. The festivities will go on all day, with plenty of Irish food options like Guinness stew, bangers and mash, corned beef and cabbage, and fish and chips.
St. Patrick’s Day Pub Crawl
If you want to head to Los Angeles for the night, book tickets to the Downtown Los Angeles St. Patrick’s Day Pub Crawl and Beer Garden. For $18, you get a free shot when you arrive and a drinks voucher to use at the 10 different bars that are participating in the pub crawl. There will be DJs playing music at different venues and live music at other bars.
At the end of the pub crawl, use your ticket to gain free entry into several of LA’s nearby nightclubs to keep the party going well into the morning.
St. Patrick’s Comedy Special
If you want to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day without all of the Guinness and pub crawls, consider getting tickets to the St. Patrick’s Comedy Special. This year, there will be performances from Brandon Lawrence, Renaldo Evans, Andy Southern, Christine King, and the Funny Comics.
The event takes place at Busby’s Restaurant on Wilshire Boulevard in downtown Los Angeles. Pre-sale tickets cost $15, or you can pay for them at the door for $20. There are plenty of food and drink options to choose from once you’re there, and there’s even a cigar lounge. You’re welcome to bring your favorite cigars to enjoy.
