The Celtic Street Fair invites the community to stay Downtown and continue the St. Patrick’s Day Celebration after the parade—with great music, food and drink.
The committee is pleased to present the usual lineup of great Irish groups following the parade on March 17th at the Celtic Street Fair, now being held at the beautiful 6th Avenue Ballroom from 1:00 to 3:30 pm! This year, the committee is proud to present The Kelihans - a great Kansas City Irish group! This group will feed your Irish soul, while at the same time rockin your Kelly green socks off!
Watch The Kelihans!
As always, we are pleased to present the Kansas Territorial Pipe and Drum Band. In their 35th year, the band’s humble roots go back to 1975 when two very grown men took up the practice chanter for the very first time and learned how to play from a 14 year old bagpiper! No Irish celebration is complete without this awesome group of pipers!
