About Irish You Were Here
Irish You Were Here is River North's premier St. Patrick's Day bar fest — 10 hours of nonstop crawling through 19+ of Chicago's best nightclubs and bars, with bonus venues on the Gold Coast.
What makes this crawl different? A dedicated door team member is staffed at every single venue to make sure wristband holders don't get denied entry. Most crawls just promise "access" and leave you at the mercy of the bouncer. Not this one.
Hit iconic River North spots like Joy District, Hubbard Inn, Electric Hotel, Tao, Soundbar, Liqrbox, and more — all with exclusive drink specials included with your wristband. The first 500 to pick up wristbands also get a free t-shirt, plus priority free access to the official afterparty.
Rain or shine, this one goes off. Grab your crew and get in early — prices increase and wristbands are limited.
