For the first time in its five-year history, one of Buffalo’s newest St. Patrick’s traditions will fall on the actual holiday in 2017, as Larkin Square will again welcome the public to an Irish-American celebration with live Celtic music and dance along with food trucks and drinks.
On Friday, March 17, from 5 to 8 p.m., the fifth annual KeyBank Live at O’Larkin will feature the familiar faces of Celtic rockers McCarthyizm, traditional folk trio Emerald Isle, students from Clann Na Cara School of Irish Dance, and the first responders of Greater Buffalo Firefighters Pipes & Drums, all performing individual sets along with an encore ensemble jam on the square’s covered and heated boardwalk, surrounded by a fleet of 15 food trucks. As always, the family-friendly event is free, including parking, and open to all, presented by KeyBank and sponsored by Independent Health.
“‘Tis a fun treat to have Live at O’Larkin fall on St. Patrick’s Day this year,” said Larkin Square Director of Fun Leslie Zemsky. “This is a sure sign of spring as we also welcome back the food trucks to Larkin Square, and these performers are all perfect for the occasion!”
