🍀🎤 ST. PATRICK’S DAY WEEKEND KARAOKE 🎤🍀 Green Vibes, Great Music and Great Drinks! Yes, St. Patrick’s Day falls on a Tuesday this year… But who honestly wants to party on a Tuesday unless it involves a movie night? So we’re doing this properly — weekend style. Unfortunately Nick had to cancel his karaoke but I really wanted to sing. Join us for a festive St. Patrick’s Day Weekend Karaoke. 🍀🎤 Let's sing the night away or just come listen. You never know you can happen. St. Patrick’s Day holds real historical weight in Toronto. When Irish immigrants first arrived in Canada, many faced discrimination and hardship. Over time, the Irish community played a profound role in shaping the city — from infrastructure to politics to culture. In fact, some of the earliest large-scale St. Patrick’s Day celebrations began in North America before the holiday became as widely celebrated in Ireland itself. So this weekend, we’re raising a glass not just for fun — but for legacy. And also… sing 👉 **Don’t forget to join our WhatsApp group** – [CLICK HERE!](https://chat.whatsapp.com/H59mSCbsAi018gYANrKAnc?mode=ac_t) *** 🥓 The Plan We’ll gather outside the veterans hall and I will be wearing my Moose Hate Food: Please eat before you come as there will be no food but maybe snacks. Drinks: You can by drinks but you might want to bring cash....The drinks should be cheap. *** 🧢 How to Find Me ⏰ Meetup Time: 8:00 PM ❗ I will only wait 5 minutes outside I’ll be wearing my Moose Hat by the front entrance.
