Where To Celebrate St. Patrick's Day In Murrieta

MURRIETA, CA — St. Patrick’s Day is just around the corner, and if you're looking for a lively Irish pub, Southwest Riverside County has a lot to offer.

The holiday celebrating the foremost patron saint of Ireland, lands on Monday this year, but plenty of bars are likely to keep their doors open late.

From festive parades to green beer specials, there's plenty of events and happenings planned across the county for St. Paddy’s Day this year.
