If you're a fan of St Patrick's Day and want to celebrate the event in true style this year, there can be no better place to head to than Dublin. Home to a huge range of events and festivities, Dublin is at the very centre of the action when it comes to celebrating the patron saint of Ireland. By choosing festival accommodation at the heart of the city, you can soak up the spirit of revelry. Indeed, staying in hostels can be a particularly good idea because you get to mingle with fellow revellers and really get involved in the party atmosphere. Taking place on March 17th, the festival is a huge event in Dublin. It's a good idea to arrive the day before in order to make sure that you have the most time possible to join in the fun. Departing from Holyhead in Wales, the ferry crossing takes approximately three-and-a-half hours - time which you may wish to spend getting into the spirit of things in the Irish bar. Arriving in Dublin, you can spend your evening soaking up the city's hospitality and getting a taste for its incredible nightlife. The St Patrick's Day Festival takes place the next day and you'll find that there is a huge range of things to see and do, from parades to comedy performances. Undoubtedly the parade is one of the highlights of the day, with a colourful procession winding its way through the city streets amid a crowd of eager onlookers. Boasting a fantastic atmosphere, the parade is the perfect way to celebrate. However, you can also dance to the Kilfenora ceili band and visit the funfair, or simply enjoy a drink at a local pub. The next day, why not take a tour of the famous Guinness Brewery? This is a favourite activity during Dublin breaks and there can be no time more appropriate for a visit than during the St Patrick's Day festivities. However, you can always meander around the town and discover the local sights if you feel like you have had enough Guinness for one trip! Spend the evening enjoying the vibrant Temple Bar area before heading home the next day. If you're itching for the ultimate St Patrick's Day celebration, why not head to Dublin for the St Patrick's Day Festival? By booking festival accommodation with First Festival Travel, you can stay in the centre of the city - and the heart of the action.
