With St. Patrick's Day just around the corner, there will be festive events across the nation. At Mallory Square, opportunities for celebration surround us!
St. Patrick's Day has a long history - in Ireland, the United States, and beyond. Historically, this day recognizes the patron saint of Ireland for his good deeds. In contrast, modern St. Patrick's Day events typically focus on Irish heritage and pride as a whole.
The United States is always heavily involved in the celebration of this holiday. Historians say the first St. Patty's Day parade actually took place in North America.
Today, celebrating St. Patrick's Day takes a lot of forms. Parades are still a classic choice, but bar crawls, restaurant specials, and block parties are also popular. No matter your style, you can find a way to partake in the festivities.
We love the flexibility and convenience that living in a Falls Church apartment community gives us. The best that Falls Church has to offer surrounds our residents. While Rockville may not be the first place you think of when St. Patrick's Day comes around, there are some great community events!
So, wear some green and check out the festivities going on in the Falls Church community!
