The GOODS from The Irish Heather

Vancouver, BC | Did you know it wasn’t until the early 1970s that pubs in Ireland were allowed to open for that most iconic of Irish festivities, St. Patrick’s Day? It is a holy day of obligation in Ireland and best likened to Canada’s Thanksgiving.

Vancouver’s only Irish-owned bar will be giving thanks on March 17 by doing what it does every day: celebrating all things Irish. Join the Heather Hospitality Group for the company’s 19th year of celebrating St. Patrick’s Day since the opening of The Irish Heather.

Hoist a pint over lunch or dinner and enjoy live music, pipers and dancers as they pass throughout the day. P.S.: the Heather is authentically Irish so you won’t find any green beer on tap!

As with years past – to deal with the inevitable demand and in an effort to not disappoint folk – the Heather Hospitality Group has secured Rainier Provisions across the street for “Baby Heather.” The pop-up pub will be open from afternoon until late and will feature a bar counter and bar-back handmade in Ireland.

Date: Thursday, March 17, 2016
Time: 11:30am until late
