Luck of the Duck Fest

Celebrate St. Patrick’s Day at our Branford location with an afternoon rooted in Irish tradition, community, and a little friendly competition. The Luck of the Duck Fest is family friendly and built for spending the day together, whether you stop in for one pint or stay for the full celebration.

Live Entertainment

Enjoy live music from Brannigan’s Corner, a local band performing traditional Irish and Scottish tunes throughout the afternoon. The celebration continues with an Irish step dance performance by The Brennan-Lucey Irish Dance Academy, bringing classic movement and energy to the taproom. We’re also proud to welcome the New Haven Firefighters Emerald Society, joining us to add to the spirit of the day.

Raffles and Competitions There will be plenty of chances to jump in and win throughout the event.
