Embassy celebrates St. Patrick's Day
St. Patrick's Day reception with friends of the Embassy
The Embassy held a memorable St. Patrick's Day celebration on the evening of the Thursday, 16 March! We may have skipped a few years, but it was just like "old times" on that evening, as we were joined by more than 150 guests.
Ireland's Minister of State Kieran O'Donnell was with us this year, as was the Croatian Deputy Speaker of the Sabor, Željko Reiner.
The performances by Stephen Breslin, the Drowsy Lizards and Celtic Fantasy were all excellent -- as we have come to expect from all of them!
Two Irish exhibitions ("Ireland - 50 years in the EU" and "Ireland and the Birth of Europe") were put up for guests to get an understanding of Ireland's European path, both recently and in the distant past.
