Llandudno has long shared a special connection with Ireland. Facing the Irish Sea, it’s been a historic link between the two nations, with trade, migration, and culture flowing freely between them. With its deep Celtic roots and welcoming spirit, there’s plenty of things to do in Llandudno on St. Patrick’s Day. From lively pubs to unique attractions, our charming town offers plenty to make your Irish-inspired getaway unforgettable.
Llandudno’s ties to Ireland go back centuries. The town has historically served as a key stopping point for Irish travelers making their way to mainland Britain. Welsh and Irish cultures share a love of storytelling, music, and folklore, making St. Patrick’s celebrations here feel both natural and meaningful. The dramatic landscapes of the Great Orme, reminiscent of Ireland’s coastal cliffs, further reinforce this connection.
While Llandudno may not host a grand St. Patrick’s Day parade like Dublin or Belfast, the town certainly embraces the Irish spirit. Many local establishments host themed nights with live Irish music, hearty traditional dishes, and, of course, plenty of Guinness. Whether you’re looking for a lively night out or a quiet moment of reflection overlooking the Irish Sea, Llandudno offers the perfect atmosphere for celebrating this special day.
For those looking to add a bit of thrill to their celebrations, Johnny Throws is a must-visit. Our super-popular venue boasts indoor axe throwing and augmented reality darts, delivering an AMAZING experience for visitors. With our warm, welcoming atmosphere, it’s a great place to bring friends and family for some friendly competition before heading out for a St. Pat’s night on the town. Our fully licensed bar also makes us an ideal spot to toast the Irish spirit.
No St. Patrick’s celebration would be complete without a visit to The Irish Bar on Mostyn Street. Conveniently located between Johnny Throws and Johnny Dough’s, this authentic venue brings a slice of Ireland to Llandudno. Live music fills the air several nights a week, often featuring classic Irish ballads and traditional folk tunes. The bar is famed for its warm, inviting atmosphere and what many claim is the best pint of Guinness in town. If you’re looking for a true taste of Ireland without leaving Wales, this is the place to be.
While Ireland is famous for its whiskey, Wales has its own celebrated distillery right here in Llandudno. Penderyn Distillery, known for its award-winning Welsh whisky, is a great stop for those looking to experience fine spirits beyond the usual Irish offerings. Open for tours and tastings, Penderyn delivers an in-depth look at Welsh whisky-making traditions. A visit here adds a distinctly Celtic touch to your St. Patrick’s Weekend, blending the rich heritage of Wales with the legendary whiskey culture of Ireland.
Llandudno’s culinary scene offers plenty to satisfy those looking for both Irish and Welsh flavors. Many local eateries embrace St. Patrick’s Weekend with special menus featuring classic dishes such as Irish stew, soda bread, and cawl (a traditional Welsh soup). Pair your meal with a smooth Irish whiskey or a dram of Penderyn for the perfect Celtic dining experience.
Llandudno’s coastal beauty bears a striking resemblance to many of Ireland’s rugged landscapes. A walk along the Great Orme offers sweeping views of the Irish Sea, connecting the two lands both physically and symbolically. The cliffs, caves, and ancient sites scattered across this headland mirror the mystique of the Irish coastline, making it a fitting place to reflect on the shared history between Wales and Ireland.
For those traveling from Ireland, getting to Llandudno is straightforward. Regular ferry services run from Dublin to Holyhead, followed by a scenic train or drive along the North Wales coast. Accommodations in Llandudno range from cozy bed and breakfasts to luxury hotels, ensuring a comfortable stay for all visitors.
Llandudno’s deep-rooted connection to Ireland makes it a wonderful place to celebrate St. Patrick’s Weekend. Whether you’re raising a glass at The Irish Bar, embracing adventure at Johnny Throws, or savoring fine whisky at Penderyn Distillery, this town offers an unforgettable way to honor Irish heritage. Against the backdrop of the Irish Sea, Llandudno’s blend of history, culture, and hospitality ensures a celebration that would make St. Patrick himself feel at home.
