KICK UP YOUR HEELS WITH DENVER'S CELTIC COMMUNITY at the 18th annual Colorado Irish Festival in Clement Park – three days of celebration for all ages.

A real highlight: The Young Dubliners return to CIF for one night only Fri., July 13, for a hooley that will include The Elders, The Fighting Jamesons, The Brazen Heads, The Stubby Shillelaghs and more – and it’s all free if you enter the gates between 5-6p.m. Now that’s T.G.I.F. Irish style! Strictly Irish dancers will kick up  their own sparks, as will a spirited pipe band competition. Info: ColoradoIrishFestival.org.
