Eleven St. Patrick's Day Events in Northern Michigan

Say “sláinte” at one of the festive pub crawls, grab your lucky shoes for some Irish dancing (or a leprechaun race!), hit the slopes, or enjoy one of several festivals. However you celebrate St. Patrick’s Day Up North, just don’t forget your green!

This week's Northern Express, sister publication of The Ticker, has nearly a dozen ideas for celebrating the holiday in northern Michigan. From the St. Patrick's Day Crawl For The Cure in Bellaire and AuSable Celtic Concert & St. Patrick’s Celebration - both on March 14 - to the Leapin’ Leprechaun 5K in Traverse City March 14 or concert with Celtic folk/American roots group Switchback at The Bay in Suttons Bay March 13, there's something for everyone on the list.

The Northern Express is available to read online, or pick up a free copy on newsstands at more than 650 locations in 13 counties across northern Michigan.
