It’s almost time to close the books on another week and say hello to the weekend! As usual there are plenty of events and things to do in Ocean City, however this weekend has a special meaning as it is the unofficial start of spring here in OC. People who are indigenous to the Ocean City area often refer to the 17th of March as, “Local’s New Year” but the rest of the world knows it better as St. Patrick’s Day. So grab your favorite lucky t-shirt out of the hamper, find some shamrock sunglasses, grab a pint or two and get ready for plenty of green EVERYTHING so you can celebrate St. Patty’s Day -with the help of this handy guide- OC style.
Even though St. Patrick’s Day is officially on Sunday, the main events in Ocean City will be on Saturday to allow you plenty of time to recover from all the corned beef and libations that you surely will be consuming. The centerpiece of the Saturday celebrations is the annual St. Patrick’s Day Parade and Festival. The parade begins at noon on 58th Street and proceeds south to the 45th Street Shopping Center. The parade will featuring pipe and drum bands, area high school marching bands, and proper St. Patty’s Day floats.

It’s the final weekend for the tournament, so if you are a big sports fan, this is definitely one event you don’t want to miss. The event runs the entire weekend.

Question: what is more Irish than golf? Answer: nothing, well maybe nothing except single malt beverages. The point is that golf is huge 
and Ocean City golf is even bigger. The OC area is blessed to have some of the premier signature courses in the country located just minutes from the beautiful Ocean City beaches. Eagle’s Landing Golf Course -12367 Eagle’s Nest Road, Berlin- is hosting a St. Patrick’s Day Golf Scramble. The shotgun start begins at 9am. You can play a round and have food service for only $50 per player. Four-player teams are being accepted. Traditional Irish-American fare will be served after play.

As all of you know, when the temps rise and the sun stays in the sky longer, Ocean City bars and restaurants come to life. Some of the best places to dine and find live entertainment hibernate all winter just for this weekend. Here is a quick rundown of the best places with Irish fare and Irish flare for this weekend:
