St. Patrick’s Day is getting more and more popular in Vienna and many bars and restaurants are joining the celebrations. Of course, the Irish holiday does not leave the Wurstelprater untouched either – three restaurants will offer you everything you could wish for for a successful St. Patrick’s Day celebration on Friday, March 17th, 2023!

The restaurant Zum Englischen Reiter and the Gösser Eck invite you to a joint St. Patrick’s Day party. Enjoy Irish music from two live bands, Irish food, draft Guinness, whiskey and more. Michael Pobisch and Patrick Kapusta will perform live at the Englischer Reiter, Max Grubmüller and Rainer Gradschnig at the Gösser Eck.

When: Fri. March 17 from 19:00

St. Patrick’s Parade

Not in Wurstelprater, still worth mentioning: If you haven’t had enough green beer and Irish flair on Saturday morning, you can continue straight to the St. Patrick’s Day Parade in downtown Vienna. Participants gather at the Schottenkirche; starting at 11:30, the route then leads via Freyung, Herrengasse, Michaelerplatz, Schauflergasse, Ballhausplatz, Löwelstraße and Josef-Meinrad-Platz to the Burgtheater. The organizers Shamrock Dance Company Vienna, Vienna Gaels GAA and Austro-Irish Society promise lots of fun and music.

When: Sat, March 18 from 11:00
Starting point: Schottenkirche
End point: Burgtheater from approx. 12:15 (until 16:00)
