St. Patrick’s Day is so huge in New York City that it takes a whole month to celebrate it, so March is St. Patrick’s month in New York. As our friend Brendan Dunphey says, “St. Patrick’s Day is not just a day, it is a season.” We spend 11 months of the year trying to refute the stereotype that MurphGuide is just an Irish bars website, and one month providing the best St. Patrick’s Day NYC listings anywhere. So in our continuous efforts to “connect the fun to the fun people”, we present our annual list of how to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day Month in NYC:
