Coffee Break: St. Patrick's Day

March 17, 2026

Tuesday is St. Patrick’s Day! While there was a parade to celebrate over the weekend in Minneapolis, the celebration in St. Paul will kick off downtown at noon.
It’s the 60th anniversary of the parade, which will start at Mears Park, run along 5th St, and conclude at Rice Park. Let’s start the party early by creating a whole playlist of bands with the luck of the Irish.
So for today’s 9:30 Coffee Break, what songs from bands or artists who are Irish would you like to hear?
