Our St. Patrick's Festival is Chicago's premier St. Patrick's Day celebration, with great bands, a fun kid's area, traditional dance lessons, culture, and more! It's the largest single-day fundraiser for the Irish American Heritage Center. For more information, please visit https://irish-american.org/event/st-patricks-festival-3/.

Our event is only successful because of our wonderful volunteers! We hope you can join us this year.

This year's fest will be held on St. Patrick's Day, March 17, 2018, and we are looking for volunteers and friends of the Irish American Heritage Center to help us throw another successful event. We hope you give us a hand as we raise funds for the IAHC! Volunteer roles range from set up, to ticket sales, and everything in between. Each volunteer shift is three hours long. Our earliest volunteer shifts begin at 8:00am and vary throughout the day, depending on your volunteer role and time slot.

As a token of our appreciation for your help, all volunteers will receive free day-of entry, a drink ticket, and access to the volunteer kitchen, where food and drinks will be provided. For the volunteers working the late shifts, two drink tickets will be provided.

To sign up, please follow the link below. Please feel free to share this information and link with any family and/or friends (and maybe even that one guy you know) who may be interested.
