Kuala Lumpur - St. Patrick’s Day is back again this year and the celebration will take place across Malaysia in major cities in such as Kuala Lumpur, Penang, Ipoh, Johor and Kota Kinabalu.

The Irish festival is again brought by the Malaysian favourite stout, Guinness, hosting parties with all things Irish (including the drinking of the black stuff). Central of all these is a three-day festival open to the public that will be held in Publika between 17 – 19 March 2017. Expect live performances, games and activities, Irish food, Guinness infused dishes and giveaways. 1,000 complimentary pints will be given away during the same weekend.

Running up to the main event, the Guinness roving team will be visiting outlets in the Klang Valley to give away goodie bags and exclusive merchandise to customers.
