Dublin's St. Patrick's Day Celebration, which is traditionally held the weekend of St. Patrick's Day (or the weekend prior if St. Patrick's Day falls on a Monday - Thursday), is the biggest event of our year, drawing crowds of up to 90,000 from all around the Bay Area. This kicks off a busy ten months of outdoor events, including the Spring Eggstravaganza, Dublin Pride Week, the Dublin Farmers' Markets, Picnic Flix, Family Campouts, Splatter, Community Garage Sale, Harvest Fair, Ghosts of Dublin, and concluding with the annual Tree Lighting and Breakfast with Santa in December. Also, we offer monthly Weekend Wonders year-round. 

Get Involved 
Our community's special events are exceptional because of community participation. We invite individuals and groups to volunteer or entertain at many events and welcome local businesses with many unique opportunities to participate as vendors or sponsors.
