Mulligan's on the Blue is throwing its 10th annual St. Patrick's Day celebration in Wailea this Thursday.

There’s no more appropriate place to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day than at Mulligan’s on the Blue in Wailea. This year, the authentic Irish pub is hosting its 10^th annual bash paired with its 2^nd annual golf tourney to benefit Hospice Maui. From 6am to midnight on lucky March 17th, enjoy your favorite drinks and local bands at the most Irish spot on the island.

While the day of golf begins at 6:30am, a full Irish breakfast is served at 8am, which includes homemade Irish soda bread and farm fresh eggs. Lunch buffet is $25, and served from 11:30am to 2:30pm, with all the favorites: Irish Stew, Corned Beef and Cabbage, and Fish and Chips to name just a few items. Dinner is served from 4:30pm to 8pm, an all-inclusive package of $60 per person, which includes admission, dinner buffet and table and chair for the evening. Just want a nibble? Snacks will be available at the Food Tent, starting at 4:30pm for $15 a plate.

Music will include Trevor Jones, from 11am to 1pm, Celtic Hart, 1pm to 3pm, Mean Fiddlers, 3pm to 4pm, the Isle of Maui Pipe Band featuring Jack Lee, 4pm to 5pm, The Celtic Tigers, 5pm to 8:30pm, Maui Pipe Dreams at 8:30pm, and the mighty Willie K Band finishing the night from 9pm to Midnight. In addition to music, food and drink specials, Mulligan’s will host a Best Hat Contest and Best Leprechaun Contest for the competitive partygoers.

Leave the car at home this St. Patty’s Day, because Mulligan’s is also offering a free shuttle bus from 4pm from the Dog & Duck parking lot.  General Admission is $20 in advance or $25 at the door. No cover before 4pm.
