An opportunity to shake off cabin fever and "say goodbye to Old Man Winter.   Come out to celebrate the impending spring" go back outdoors for a big community celebration.   Grab your green garb ~ clothing and accessories to join in on the fun! 

Live entertainment, specials, festivities, and of course Corned Beef can be expected throughout the day and night at bars and restaurants in both East and West Dundee on both days.  All events are in walking distance.

This year's events are taking place over two separate weekends, Saturday March 9, 2019 with following activities:

Shamrock Fundraiser, Corned Beef Contest, Kilted 5k, Pet Parade, Thom McNamee Memorial St. Patrick's Day Parade, Emmett's Brewing Big Wheel Races, St. Catherine of Siena St. Patrick's Day Dinner & Dance and much more!
