Jameson launches month-long St Patrick’s Day celebration

Jameson Irish Whiskey is launching St Patrick’s Day celebrations that will run across the entire month of March and include a series of party-at-home kits, competitions and live-streamed music events.

The celebrations start on 3rd March with a revival of Jameson’s partnership with online music broadcasting platform Boiler Room, with streaming sets each Wednesday in the run up to St Patrick’s Day. The two performances, which can be streamed live via the Jameson Connects platform, feature local bands including Dublin Rap and Indie. This will culminate in an immersive gig on St Patrick’s Day (17 March), with a Grammy nominated Toronto-based singer-songwriter Jessie Reyez performing some of her critically acclaimed tracks including Coffin, Shutter Island and Figures. Other performers include Dublin rappers Denise Chalia and Kojaque, R&B artist Savannah-Re, and Canadian rapper Junia-T.

The aim is to showcase emerging talent and creatives from across the world to celebrate hometowns and communities. The live gig will be accessible only through Jameson’s online partners, or via its Jameson Connects platform, available across four time zones. Fans can sign up for free tickets and check performance times on the Jameson Connects website.

Jameson is also teaming up with Brooklyn-based internet football club, Nowhere FC to create a collection of three limited edition football shirts, and accessories. Fans can join the team, when the collection launches on on 10th March via Jameson.com and NwFC’s website.

The brand is also offering fans the change to win a “once in a lifetime St Patrick’s Day experience” for 2022. To enter the competition fans have to let Jameson’s social media team know they would like to spend St Patrick’s Day next year and why.

Brendan Buckley, international marketing Director at Irish Distillers said St Patrick’s Day is a day to celebrate all that Ireland represents – culture, music and togetherness. “Jameson is ensuring that this year is no different as the whiskey brings its proud Irish spirit to life through a series of global virtual events and collaborations that encourage everyone to adapt an Irish state of mind and join in to safely celebrate St Patrick’s Day 2021.”
