Today’s the day to grab something green and head to the CCI for some St Patrick’s craic! All ages are invited to join in the festivites organised in collaboration with the Irish in France association.
We have lined up music galore with mini-concerts by a full pipe band, Poil O'Brass Band, as well as traditional concerts by Leonard Barry, Paddy Sherlock and the band Trio Mór. Have your face painted, browse the latest Irish novels in the Médiathèque, or enjoy some tasty food and drink… a great atmosphere throughout the afternoon!
