Whilst the annual St Patrick’s Day parade in Digbeth may not be taking place this year, The Old Crown have a huge 10 day events lineup to celebrate the big day!
The Old Crown, Birmingham’s oldest secular building and winner of ‘best traditional pub’ at the 2019 Midland Food and Drink Hospitality Awards, is a must-visit Digbeth venue. Their Digbeth St Pat’s events are in addition to their celebration of this year’s Six Nation’s. They are giving 250 pubgoers, who have brought a drink before the game is over, a voucher for a free Guinness pint of every match Ireland wins this Six Nations!
Kicking off on Wednesday 8th March with Prof. Carl Chinn and ending on Saturday 18th March The Old Crown’s #DigbethStPats events are set to be the biggest St Patrick’s Day celebration in the area. Find the full list of what’s on here…
