Melbourne has many a fine Irish establishment with some twenty or more Irish hotels in Melbourne city alone.

We scoured the cobbled streets to find some of the Paddy's Day events to be part of including fine dining, restaurants and parties.

So make sure you get some green clothing on, look for some clover, and maybe wear a sparkly tinsel green hat on your head. Now get out and about this Paddy's day.
