Nightlife Happenings in Long Beach

This post was written by Jen Marx. 

It's Irish Day!
The Ancient Order of Hibernian's Irish Day Parade and Festival returns on Saturday. After spending the morning and early afternoon hours watching the parade head into the West End pubs where you'll find food and drinks aplenty. As you make your way down West Beech Street from bar to bar, you'll spot plenty of vendors selling many Irish goods. This 23rd annual parade starts at 11 a.m. at Washington Boulevard and heads down West Beach Street, ending at Nevada Avenue. 

A Fall Night Away
A crisp autumn chill is in the air, but that doesn't mean you can't still enjoy a lovely stroll on the beach while staying at a luxury hotel. Give yourself a break and enjoy the Allegria Hotel's "Fall Fun" special, in which double occupancy rooms cost $199 for a weeknight.

Sports in a Different Style
Who doesn't like chowing down on wings while watching their favorite football teams on Sundays? Wings will always be a sports time staple, but once sometimes you may crave something a bit different. With 22 LCD screens, the Beach House is the place to catch the Jets, Giants and other NFL teams. Indulge in items from the raw bar such as fresh-shucked oysters, chilled lobster cocktail or tuna. 

Something Relaxing
Reserve a spot now for the "Learn to Sew" class for beginners, slated for Oct. 10 at 7 p.m. Hosted at Elicon Art Studio, this event will teach you threading, using a sewing machine, creating a pattern and so forth.
