When are Irish eyes smiling?

Sunday’s St. Patrick’s Day parade in Dublin seems a good bet. I’ll know for sure when I’m streetside in the Irish capital.

Join me on Twitter for this year’s three-day celebration including Ceili House Live in Concert at Ireland’s National Concert Hall in Dublin March 16.

As a guest of Tourism Ireland representing Sun Media, through next week, I’ll be checking out various venues the Emerald Isle is readying to welcome “home” some 70 million people worldwide who claim Irish heritage.

Special festivals, clan gatherings and sports events are in the works this year in celebration of The Gathering Ireland 2013. It’s billed as the country’s biggest tourism initiative ever. More information at thegatheringireland.com.
