Where To Celebrate Saint Patrick’s Day In Perth
It's true what they say – the luck of the Irish takes a special spot in everyone's hearts on Saint Patrick’s Day. Whilst officially on Tuesday 17 March, the festivities are taking place over the whole weekend, so embrace the craic, trawl your wardrobes for green and skip on down to all of the best Irish celebrations that Perth has to offer.
We hope you like Guinness. Here are all the best places to celebrate Saint Patrick’s Day in Perth in 2026. Sláinte!
Molly’s

For a celebration that refuses to be contained to a single day, Molly’s Irish Pub hosts a week-long takeover at both its Highgate and East Victoria Park locations. The festivities feature a massive full Irish breakfast buffet to start the day, followed by live trad sessions, Irish dancers, and face painting for the kids. If you're looking for breathing room, the East Vic Park venue has an epic Guinness beer garden that doubles the capacity for the weekender crowds. It’s the high-energy blend of community spirit and authentic hospo that makes Molly’s a mandatory stop on any Perth Paddy’s Day crawl.
McNally’s

For a St. Paddy’s Day that feels more like a Dublin snug than a Subiaco street corner, McNally’s is the undisputed heavy hitter. The new kid on the Rokeby block at the end of 2025, it’s the kind of place where the Guinness pours smooth and the craic is laid on thick. Whether you’re tucked into a dark wood booth with a plate of hearty beef and Guinness stew or joining the party, the atmosphere is authentic sans the kitsch. Just remember the golden rule: arrive early, grab a stool, and prepare for a marathon of storytelling and stouts – because at McNally's, everyone is family until the kegs run dry.
JB O’Reilly’s
99 Cambridge St, West Leederville WA 6007

A local treasure as far as Irish pubs go, the party goes on all weekend so we're totally here for the carpark beer garden and the famous Sunday roast at JB O’Reilly’s this Paddy's Day. From Saturday through to Tuesday, expect all the usual antics with great music, award-winning Guinness and plenty of entertainment.
Johnny Fox’s

It's a five day affair at Johnny Fox’s. The mayhem kicks off with ‘mates rates’ and ‘mates plates’ (drinking all those pints over the years has finally paid off), and the return of the cult-favourite Duck Spice Bag, building toward a massive weekend of dual-stage live music and traditional Sunday roasts (complete with free prosecco for Irish mums). St. Patrick’s Day itself is a wall-to-wall blowout starting at 10am, featuring a full Irish fry-up, leprechaun appearances, and a ‘Split the G’ competition. With two stages hosting everything from trad sessions to rowdy late-night sets by The Healys, it’ll be proper craic.
Durty Nelly’s
397 Murray St, Perth WA 6000

Durty Nelly's is set to throw its biggest Paddy's Day bash yet full of all the Irish delicacies you could possibly desire. Opening at 7am, you can start the day with an early morning fry-up before carb loading on a proper McDonnells curry or chicken fillet roll - IYKYK. For entertainment, there'll be high energy Irish dancing and plenty of those killer Irish tunes.
Fibber McGee’s

Pull up a seat at Fibber McGee’s and enjoy an epic feed and a few rounds of drinks while taking in the toe-tapping Irish music, dancing and more. It is Saint Paddy’s Day so they’re slinging lots and lots of Guinness which is applauded. We suggest taking a pitcher (it lasts longer).

St Patrick’s Day is coming in hot at The Royal this year. Head on down for the crispiest, tastiest spice bags packed with hot chips, fried chicken, peppers, onions, and of course, curry sauce. Oh, and did we mention they’re slinging $8 pints of Guinness? We’re locked in.
Fenians Irish Pub

The crew down at Fenians are giving us all the emerald isle-worthy celebrations with three days of Irish food, Irish music and Irish dancers. Thirsty?
