Saturday, March 15 is the 25th annual Upper Keys Irish Festival. Arguably the biggest St. Patrick’s Day party in the Upper Keys, the festivities will be held at Caribbean Club in Key Largo beginning at 11 a.m.
The event will feature corned beef and cabbage as well as green beer. There will also be Irish dancers taking to the stage during the day, along with live music. Event-goers can also enjoy Irish beer and whiskey, a silent auction and raffles and vendors, while a kids zone will be set up to keep the little tykes busy.
A signature part of the festivities is a parade that starts at noon. Golf carts and vehicles decked in green will ride past viewers in Key Largo. Parade participants will also vie for prizes.
The festivities serve as a fundraiser for Teen Intervention Prevention Services (TIPS) of the Florida Keys and their work with Key Largo athletics and Upper Keys students.
