Time to party at Mount Lavinia Hotel’s ‘St. Patrick’s on the Beach’ Irish fiesta

Mount Lavinia Hotel’s Paradise Beach is decked in green for three full days for the best Irish fiesta to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day. The celebrations, which kicked off on 17 March, will continue until tonight (19), from 7 p.m. onwards, so brush up your dancing skills to join the Irish band and tap dancing girls flown down especially for the event.

Bringing the festival outdoor to the Paradise Beach, Mount Lavinia Hotel promises – and delivers on – a completely different experience this year. The atmosphere blends tropical with Irish; food, drinks, music and dance under the starry skies, with feet buried in the golden sand. Topped up with a series of fun-filled games, the festival definitely offers great excitement.

Aer Lingus, the Irish band which is performing at the festival, comes from one of the oldest music societies in Ireland, the Aer Lingus Musical Society. Comprising six members and the group of tap dancers, they add to the fun and frolic of the beach festival.

“Together with our partners we have been the ideal hosts for probably the best beach festivals in the past and our guests eagerly look forward to the next one. St. Patrick’s Day celebrations are bigger and better this year. We have moved outdoors not only to accommodate the growing number of party goers but also to provide an amazing atmosphere where tropical meets Irish festivities,” commented Bazeer Cassim, Group General Manager for Mount Lavinia Hotel Group.
