ORLANDO, Fla. – Is there ever enough time to celebrate the holiday that serves up the best of Irish food, music, and dance with every pint of Guinness? At Raglan Road Irish Pub & Restaurant in Disney Springs, guests can celebrate St. Patrick’s Day from March 14 through March 17 at the Mighty St. Patrick’s Day festival—the most authentic Irish festival in America.

That’s four full days of St. Patrick’s Day craic with notable Irish bands flown in for the celebration including headliners Téada—one of Ireland’s top Trad bands, and Strings & Things—the back-by-demand high-energy contemporary Irish folk group that rocked the pub’s Grand Room stage last year.
