The 2013 Festival is over - a little wet but good fun!Thank you all for participating in the Festival. The Festival is held each year on the Westbury Village Green on the March weekend closest to St Patricks Day. Next years date: Saturday 18th of March 2014 The day after St Patricks Day
In its current form the Festival has been running for a couple of decades or so but St Patricks Day was first celebrated on the Westbury Village Green in the 1820s when Irish political prisoners were banished to Tasmania and the Meander Valley, and Irish soldiers were garrisoned in Westbury.
