Milwaukee Irish Fest is the largest celebration of its kind, anywhere in the world!

You can also pick up a Pirate Paddy Passport, watch a parade, visit the Leprechaun Village, meet and pet some of Ireland’s most popular dog breeds at the Celtic Canine area, and more.

Traditional Irish fare includes bridies (turnovers), sausage rolls, shepherd’s pie, bangers and mash, corned beef and cabbage, and a variety of stuffed baked potatoes. For a sweet dessert, try Bailey’s cheesecake, shamrock cookies or Irish cream puffs.
