It's going to be a special day on Mackinac Island.

The Pub Runners are among the most popular entertainers on Mackinac Island where they've been performing since 2000. You're invited to join the band and many Island residents as they celebrate the Irish heritage on Mackinac Island. You'll enjoy a full afternoon of Irish music, stories and fun plus great Irish dancing by Hubbardston Irish Dance Troupe. 

We'll welcome renouned Northwest Michigan performer Ruby John as our guest fiddler. Mackinac Island Mayor Margaret Doud will offer a special welcome and we'll hear about the island's rich Irish heritage from Phil Porter, Director Emeritus of the Mackinac Island State Historic Parks.

Come for the day! Enjoy the Island and take in the festival.

Both Arnold Transit and Shepler's ferries run until late in the evening to return to the mainland.
