Want to have some fun this weekend and need a break from all the school
“hustle and bustle”? Head on down to
Crown Center for KC’s Annual Irish Fest, September 2nd- 4th. This is great fun for the whole family. There
will be 7 stages featuring more than 30 bands, more than 20 heritage workshops,
a children’s stage and a comedian. Heritage;
you think you’re the best knitter, baker, brewer or photographer? Comedy; hope you like to laugh with comedians
performing on stage. Food; there will be many vendors featuring all types of
food and beverages. Mass; don’t miss
Kansas City’s largest outdoor Mass. Full Catholic Mass starts at 9:30 a.m.,
Sunday, Sept. 5th. Feis; an
Irish dance competition. This competition takes place at the Westin Crown
Center. This once a year festival has
everything for all ages; games, pumpkin patch, face painting, a parade
featuring a newly crowned High King, Queen, Knight and Princess. This Royal
Court will lead a fun procession around the square at Crown Center on Saturday
and Sunday. For additional information

- **The Big Screen
you're used to seeing at the Boulevard Stage will be even bigger this
year. It's going to take over the background of the Boulevard Stage and
hang like a curtain. The best part: we'll be able to use it during the
day!
- **Kids will love rolling around in the Human-Sized
Inflatable Hamster Ball!
- **The Kid's Theme this year is the "High
Kings of Ireland"! Kids are encouraged to come dressed as a king or
queen!
- **The Park Stage has been moved further east
into Washington Park to avoid any sound bleed with the Boulevard Stage!
- **Contests this year are offering a Masters category in knitting and baking.
See you in your green,
Savannah
