One of the best things about the Lehigh Valley is that its residents and businesses are always introducing some sort of new event or annual attraction to ensure the area stays one of the most fun places to live. Well this year is no different with the introduction of a brand new way to not just celebrate St. Patrick’s Day, but to enjoy the entire week before the grand finale of the largest St. Patrick’s Day Parade in the Lehigh Valley.
Bethlehem is proud to be the host of an entire week of Irish festivities to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day – Bethlum go Bragh! It only seems right that the City with the largest Celtic festival in North America would paint the town GREEN for a full week of “all things Irish”.
On any day of the week, March 11-17, you can enjoy Irish fare, music, events, and specials in the two downtowns of Bethlehem! Then, on March 17th, You may call it St. Patrick’s Day; but the downtowns of Bethlehem like to call it “half way to Celtic Classic!” Either way, get your green on and celebrate St. Patrick’s Day in Historic Downtown Bethlehem with the Parade of Shamrocks–the streets will be filled with the sound of bagpipes, and all things Irish!
Let’s take a look at the exciting events this first time ever Bethlum go Bragh! has in store for you:
