Spring is in the air and it’s time to celebrate! Enjoy some Irish shenanigans at Jacksonville’s St. Patrick’s Day event, Celebrate the Shamrock on Saturday, March 13, beginning at noon.

Shop our stores in town for special-themed discounts and giveaways. There will also be grand prize basket drawing valued at over $250! Enter to win at participating merchants throughout town. Plus, several restaurants will also have deliciously-themed treats and drinks to enjoy for outdoor dining or for pick-up.

While in town, bring the kids by the Visitor Information Center (located next to the Post Office) and pick-up a fun craft to take home. Horse-drawn wagon rides will also be back in town with pick-ups on the corner of 5th & C Street across from the Mustard Seed Café every 30 minutes throughout the day. (Limited to groups up to 6 people.)

Enjoy festive music by our talented local musicians that will be playing at different locations in town throughout the afternoon.

We will also be offering our popular “Stay & Play” package at a local inn and restaurant. The giveaway will be announced via Instagram @visitjacksonvilleoregon and Facebook @jacksonvilleoregon. Check out all the details leading up to Celebrate the Shamrock at www.celebratejacksonville.com.

This event is sponsored by the Jacksonville Chamber of Commerce.
