SeaWorld is celebrating St. Patrick’s Day with three days full of fun, food and festivities from March 15 to 17.  SeaWorld Happy Hour will go green after 4 p.m. Friday through Sunday, giving guests the opportunity to toast the day with a $4 Shamrock Margarita specialty cocktail, or “Brew for $2” 12-ounce draft green beers at High Tide Brews and Underwater Cantina.

Throughout the weekend, guests feeling the luck of the Irish can take their chance looking high and low in search of pots of gold hiding throughout the park to redeem for a prize at Guest Services. While looking for pots of gold, guests can dance along to authentic performances from the Irish Dance School at SkyTower Lawn.

SeaWorld’s Seven Seas Food Festival event is happening now, and this weekend only, the park is adding Tastes of Ireland for guests to sip and sample. Featured Irish cuisine includes Shepherd’s Pie, Corned Beef Sandwich, Guiness Beef Stew, and Guiness Brownies.
