St Patrick's Day at The Rocks
12 to 17 March 2026
The Rocks will come alive this St Patrick's Day with unmissable events, toe‑tapping Irish music, jigs, reels, family fun and a mighty spread of Irish food to keep every belly smiling.
The beloved Sydney St Patrick’s Day Festival will once again take over First Fleet Park across the weekend, offering a vibrant cultural celebration not to be missed.
Across The Rocks, local venues will be serving festive Irish favourites, from spice bags to hearty pub classics and of course, Sydney's oldest Irish pub The Mercantile will be pouring pints, hosting live music and dishing up its famous Irish Breakfast, making it one of the must‑stop spots of the celebration.
