It’s estimated that roughly 10% of the population in Washington state identify as Irish for their primary heritage. That’s just shy of 800,000 people who celebrate more than just green beer and music on March 17.
The Irish Heritage Club of Seattle hosts a week of festivities but also has a unique yearslong partnership with one of Ireland's largest cities. Galway, Ireland is known as the festival capital of the country and hosts on average 122 festivals a year.
Seattle and Galway formalized a sister city partnership in 1986.
