You don\u2019t need to live in Ireland to be lucky enough to celebrate St. Patrick\u2019s Day. The City of Richmond has everything from block parties and Irish pubs to 5k races for people who are looking for a fun time.<\/p>\n
The festivities are kicking off early this year with fun to be had as early as March 11th, but don\u2019t worry, the party continues through St. Patty\u2019s day on March 17th and the weekend after. If you can\u2019t make it to Shamrock the Block in Scott\u2019s Addition, you might be able to secure a seat at one of Shockoe Bottom\u2019s Irish pubs.<\/p>\n
