Shamrock Festival
St. Patrick's Day is a time to celebrate shamrocks, leprechauns and enjoying the golden bubbly. On Saturday, March 10, over 40 local and national bands performed on 8 stages at the 2007 Shamrock Festival. The all-day festival was the biggest St. Patty's Festival in the history of the DC area. Jugglers, comedians, and magicians provided entertainment throughout the day while vendors sold everything from Irish crafts to beer throughout the grounds.
This year's festival featured many local bands from the Northern Virginia and Dewey party circuit, like Mr. Greengenes, The Kelly Bell Band, and JunkFood, plus a couple of national-level headliners in the Connells and Flogging Molly. Tents were also set up for DJ's, including an appearance by DJ AM that had the whole crowd rocking. Proceeds went to help Stop Child Abuse Now.
