St. Patrick’s Day is a full 24 hours when the world celebrates Irish culture. It’s also the best day of the year for many people!

Travelers visiting San Diego during the holiday are in (Irish) luck. The city will be lit up with festivities everywhere. So, no matter if you’re looking for a loud night out or even a healthy run to start the holiday, there’s bound to be something to bring out the Irish in everyone.

If you’d like to have a big, loud night out, consider attending San Diego Shamrock. This late-night block party will be held in one of the city’s best neighborhoods, the Gaslamp Quarter. Be prepared to sham “rock” out to live bands performing Irish rock, Irish punk rock and other festive favorites.

If you’d prefer to start your day off running (literally), consider partaking in the St. Patrick’s Day 10K race. Head to Mission Bay Park and compete against other racers for the “Irish-themed” costume contest. Afterwards, enjoy Domino’s Pizza and beer.

Families probably will want to see the city’s St. Patrick’s Day parade. Watch as bagpipers, musicians and performers make Balboa Park colorful.

Grab some pals and get ready for a night out. Imbibe drink specials at four different bars and celebrate beer. Green attire is encouraged, but not required.
