17th March is primarily a cultural holiday... but it's also a great excuse for a party. Whether you want to sit with whiskey listening to an Irish band or dance around drenched in Guinness at a top pick of Irish pubs and bars, these places are here for you. Wear something green, grab a stoutie and keep up to date with our guide to St Patrick's Day 2026 in Manchester.

Aside from the St Patrick's Day Parade (taking place on Sunday 15th March, starting at the Irish World Heritage Centre in Cheetham Hill at 12pm and finishing on Deansgate) as part of the wider Manchester Irish Festival, there are plenty of events and parties across the city to make St Paddy's Day and its nearest weekend a good'un.
