Cascadia Pipe Band, a local Scottish pipes and drums band, will be doing a St. Patrick’s Day pub crawl–style performance through the West Seattle Junction and into the Admiral District on Friday, March 13. Throughout the evening, the band will rotate through several participating bars and restaurants, playing short, high-energy sets to bring some festive spirit, foot traffic, and excitement to the neighborhood.

Cascadia performs at community events, parades, and competitions throughout the Seattle area, and events like this help the band raise funds to travel to Scotland to compete in the World Pipe Band Championships. We tied for 6th place last year! (Here’s how to donate.)

It should be a lively way to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day weekend while supporting local businesses and bringing a little bagpipe cheer to West Seattle.
