With back-to-back events in the Yellowstone Teton Territory all month along, get dressed up in green and gold and celebrate eastern Idaho all month long.

The most posh spring event takes place on March 13, for an early Saint Patrick’s Day celebration at  The DEC – Downtown Event Center→. The Greater Idaho Falls Chamber Foundation’s annual fundraiser welcomes special guest of honor,  Lt. Gov. Scott Bedke and several other distinguished guests as the foundation raises money for the Emerging Leaders Program, a two-year, credited educational program for High School Students. The evening includes an exhibition of Irish Dancing from O Aois Caite Irish Dancing Group as well as some awesome silent auction items and a 50/50 raffle.

On March 14, Idaho Falls’ Paddy’s on the Park→ is the ultimate gathering of leprechauns with beer, live music and a whole lotta green goodness. Grab your friends for Park Ave and visit your favorite downtown bars and restaurants. Enjoy an afternoon packed with the Irish spirit, friendly competition, and nonstop fun.

Enjoy live music by Satin N Steel & Lil’ Red, an Irish dancer performance, interactive games, and plenty of reasons to raise a glass. Try your luck with our Giant Plinko Raffle, test your corn hole skills at Bob’s Indoor Golf booth, and so much more! Don’t forget to cast your vote for your favorite fully decorated vendor or bar — bragging rights (and pride) are on the line!

Take in all of St. Patrick’s Day, downtown style—with the ideal free family-friendly springtime event. And don’t miss your chance to March in March with Idaho Falls Firefighters Pipes & Drums, a non-profit band formed by local firefighters (IAFF Local 1565) in 2006 to perform at community events and honor fallen first responders.
