Ah, St. Patrick’s Day—the one magical time of year when wearing an outrageous green outfit is encouraged, Guinness flows like a Celtic river, and everyone suddenly discovers a long-lost Irish ancestor.
And this year, The President Hotel is rolling out the green carpet for an epic weekend of revelry, hearty feasting, and toe-tapping tunes.
A Weekend of Craic, Rugby, and Indulgence
- Starting Saturday, March 15, The President kicks things off with the St. Patrick’s Pre-Party (R375 per person)—a full-throttle day of rugby, live Celtic music, and a feast fit for a Gaelic king. The festivities begin at 3 PM, and if you’re a rugby fan, you’re in luck! With screenings of Italy vs. Ireland, Wales vs. England, and France vs. Scotland, you won’t miss a single scrum, tackle, or try.
And of course, the real MVP of the day? The food! Expect canapés like Shepherd’s Pie Quiche and Jameson Cured Yellowtail, followed by a main course that includes options like Beef Short Rib and Guinness Stew or Stout Marinated Chicken. Dessert? A choice between Baileys Cheesecake or a Honey and Stout Tart, naturally served with an Irish Coffee because moderation is for another day.
Sunday Calls for a Feast
Feeling slightly ‘tender’ from Saturday’s antics? Fear not. The President has the perfect cure—St. Patrick’s Sunday Lunch (R395 per person). A glorious buffet awaits, packed with comforting delights and the perfect touch of Irish charm to nurse you back to your festive self. Think of it as a warm hug from the Emerald Isle.
The Grand Finale: St. Patrick’s Day Proper
On Monday, March 17, it’s time for the official celebration. And what’s a St. Patrick’s Day without drink specials? The President is pouring out deals that would make any leprechaun jealous. Buy 2 Guinness, get 1 free. Buy 2 Irish cocktails, get 25% off. Sláinte to that!
Why You Don’t Want to Miss This
If the thought of rugby, live music, a spectacular Irish-inspired menu, and well-priced pints isn’t enough to convince you, consider this: The President knows how to throw a party. The atmosphere? Unmatched. The energy? Pure joy. The food and drinks? Worth every bite and sip.
So, whether you’re Irish by blood or just Irish at heart, get your greenest outfit ready and head to The President for a weekend of unforgettable St. Patrick’s Day celebrations.
