What does one think about when one thinks about St. Patrick’s Day? In a word: FUN! The images of revelers from coast to coast hoisting pints of beer, cheering bagpipers and step dancers and marching bands parading through city streets belies the more religious beginning of an Irish holiday that celebrates the Patron Saint of Ireland. But in a perfect mix of religion, legend, and pride the Irish have shared with all of us all a day to experience specialty foods, revel in great music, dancing and drinking and indulge in a whole lot of green.
With our Irish roots, Hotel VIA has a special reason to celebrate. Our independent, boutique hotel is family owned and operated by the owner from Ireland who conceived the idea for the hotel, built the hotel and opened it about 5 years ago. With that lineage, it’s incumbent upon us to open up our beautiful rooftop for a truly Irish St. Patrick’s Day Party.
Mark the date now: Friday, March 17th. Celtic Scandal, the Bay Area’s favorite Irish band, will energize everyone and they’re bringing some friends to join the fun. Irish step dancers and Irish bagpipers will bring out everyone’s Irish. Indulge in drinks and traditional Irish Fare. If you’re not sure what traditional Irish Fare is then it’s another reason that you’ll want to join the party.
Doors open at 3:00 p.m. The music starts at 5:00 p.m. Tickets and space are limited so you’ll want to jump on reserving your spot right away. Get your tickets, pick out your greenest wardrobe and we’ll see you at our real Irish St. Patrick’s Day Rooftop Party.
