Update: Looking for things to do in 2018? Head over here.
St. Patrick’s Day, that annual Holiday we celebrate a man who had with those motherf**kin’ snakes on that motherf**kin’ island by drinking green beer and eating boiled meat, is coming up again on March 17. This year, it’s on a Friday – which is not only great news for you to get your drink on, but great news for your boss, as you will be hungover on a weekend instead of company time.
Here’s what’s going on in and around the Greater Palm Springs area (with items to be added as they are announced):
La Quinta Brewing
The brewery in Palm Desert will be unleashing not one, but two St. Paddy’s style beers (an Irish Red Ale and an Irish Dry Stout) when it opens at 2pm. Meanwhile, the taproom in Oldtown La Quinta will have a Stone tap takeover with Enjoy by 4/20/17, Doublicious DIPA, Hop Revolver IPA, and Jindia Pale Ale (which is freakin’ delicious!).

The Village Pub
The downtown Palm Springs bar will get things started with food and drink specials at 1pm and a party that kicks off at 8pm. There will also be a scavenger hunt (?) and a drawing for a pot of gold.
Midget Mania Leprechaun Battle
The Riverside Municipal Auditorium plays host to this Extreme Midget Wrestling’s “St. Patrick’s Day Wrestling Extravaganza.” Showtime is at 8pm and you can get comp tickets (or better tickets for $7) here.
Neil’s Lounge
Beginning at 8pm, the Indio bar will be serving up green beer, corned beef and cabbage, and offering free rides home.
