St. Patrick's Day Events in Utah: Top Local Celebrations

If you find yourself in Utah on St. Patrick’s Day, you won’t have to look far to celebrate Irish heritage right. This special day commemorating all things Irish food, music, culture and more, is a great time to go out, dress green, and make long-lasting memories at a local pub or parade. Here are the best places to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day in Utah.

Park City’s most popular pub, Flanagan’s offers a tempting selection of traditional pub fare—including shepherd’s pie, corned beef & cabbage, and bangers n’ mash—that’ll surely fill you up. Wash it down with some Irish coffee or Guinness Draught and you’ve had yourself a truly Irish meal.
Squatters, Salt Lake City, UT
First opened in 1989, Squatter’s is now a Salt Lake City establishment. An environment and community-friendly pub, Squatters is first and foremost known for its hearty brews. There isn’t much better than a high-quality pint on St. Patrick’s Day.

Snowbird, Little Cottonwood Canyon, UT
In keeping its Oktoberfest spirit, Snowbird Resort also offers a celebratory St. Patrick’s experience. Beer, grub, and beautiful scenery—what else could you possibly ask for?
