How to Be Irish in Philly

How to Be Irish in Philly This Week

Quite a fun little week ahead, with lots of live musical listening opportunities—as well as an opportunity to get out and get physical with Philly’s vibrant Gaelic sports scene.

Here ya go:

Friday, April 23

Frank Daly will be performing at Eddington House, 2813 Hulmeville Road in Bensalem, tonight, starting at 8 p.m.

And Raymond Coleman appears at Dooney’s Pub, 154 NJ-73 in Voorhees, N,J., starting at 6 p.m.

Saturday, April 24

Na Toraidhe—the Philadelphia Hurling and Camogie Club—is looking for new players. Never heard of hurling or camogie? Not surprising. Lots of people haven’t. But trust us, both are some of the fastest moving games in all of sport, and they’re unique to Ireland. Find out more at registration night, 5 p.m. at Punch Buggy Brewing, 1445 N. American Street in Philly. The 2021 hurling and camogie season start soon.

Sunday, April 25

Raymond Coleman is back, this time at Krick Wuder Saloon & Restaurant, 2676 Bridge Street in Philadelphia, starting at 5.

Wednesday, May 5

The Irish Diaspora Center senior luncheons are back!  The first one is at The Crossbar in Havertown. Registration in advance and covid screening are required. To register, email alanna@icphila.org.

Friday, May 7

Wee Neil Mac Thiarnáin and Moira appear—we should say re-appear, since they’re there a lot—at New Deck Tavern, 3408 Sansom Street in University City. Starts at 6:30.

That’s it for now. Take care, and see you next time.
