In this edition: We celebrate St Patrick’s season in Brisbane with the parade, the St Patrick’s Eve Dinner at City Hall featuring Irish Minister of State Kevin ‘Boxer’ Moran and ABC presenter Loretta Ryan, St Patrick’s Day Mass at the Cathedral of St Stephen and the traditional QIA lunch at Wests Rugby Club.

There’s also details of the QIA tour of Irish graves at Ipswich Cemetery, and looking ahead we have a special screening of The Catalpa Rescue in April to mark the 150^th anniversary of the famous prison escape.

Join us as we celebrate Irish history, community and culture in Brisbane.
