THE BEST OF IRISH CULTURE IN THE PACIFIC NORTHWEST
PNW Fleadh: An Irish Festival in the Northwest
Sunday, March 24, 2024 5:00 - 9:00 PM
On a Sunday evening, join the newly founded Irish & Celtic Society of Snohomish County in the final celebration of the St. Patrick’s Day season - the PNW Fleadh.
‘Fleadh’ (pronounced fl-aw)is an Irish word for festival, and this Irish festival will feature Irish musicians, dancers, chefs, and athletes across the Puget Sound.
Audience members will be entranced with the rhythms, tastes, and talents while celebrating the best of Irish culture.
March features many Irish celebrations throughout Seattle, but there are limited performances for audiences in North Seattle.
“While we highlight Irish dancing and culture throughout the year, St. Patrick’s Day presents an opportunity to share the vibrant culture of Ireland with all in our community.
"The PNW Fleadh is a rare opportunity to see so many talented Irish performers in one place, and my dancers are honored to be a part of this evening’s entertainment,” commented Lauren Carroll-Bolger of the Carroll-Henderson School of Irish Dance.
The Carroll-Henderson Irish dancers are among the many performers of the evening.

The Irish & Celtic Society of North Snohomish County is changing that with the PNW Fleadh and other upcoming performances. The PNW Fleadh is the ultimate end-celebration of the month and offers an opportunity for audiences not wanting to make the trek into the city.
In addition to many performances, guests are offered dinner by Shawn O’Donnells and can take part in an Irish bake-off and tea tasting competition.

For the bake-off, inspired Irish bakers can create their best soda and/or brown bread and submit their loaves for judgment by an esteemed panel of Irish bread enthusiasts.
Guests can also partake in a blind Irish tea tasting competition and see if they can identify the difference between Barrys or Lyons Irish tea.
