    Party Like You're Irish

    How to turn St. Patrick's Day into a 3-day holiday weekend in Dallas

    Diana Oates
    Mar 14, 2014 | 10:24 am

    Dallas knows how to show the Irish love on St. Paddy's Day. To shoot it straight: It's hard to find a sober person on Greenville Avenue regardless of what day the holiday falls on.

    This year St. Patrick's Day falls on a Monday, but we choose to look at the glass of whiskey half full, because you can start your partying on Saturday — most notably at the parade along Greenville Avenue — and take it straight through. If you are super sentimental about the holiday, you may be one of the lucky (bastards) who can take the day off to enjoy some beer, corned beef and live music.

    Here's a roundup of this weekend's St. Patrick's Day events around Dallas.

    Saturday, March 15

    Dallas St. Patrick's Parade and Festival
    Join in on the largest St. Patrick's Day parade in the South starting at 11 am at Greenville Avenue and Blackwell Street and ending at SMU Boulevard at 75. Get there early if you want to see anything.

    Dash Down Greenville 5K
    There are always those who like to celebrate holidays by running or doing other healthy things. We can support it, especially because it benefits the North Texas Food Bank. Registration is $35 now and $40 on race day.

    St. Patrick's Day Concert featuring Ludacris
    Ludacris headlines the post-parade concert at the northwest corner of Greenville Avenue and University Boulevard, with gates opening at noon. VIP is sold out, but general admission can still be had for $15 before or $20 at the gate. Bring your green hat rain or shine because this concert starts at noon regardless of weather.

    Barley House St. Paddy's Day Bar Crawl
    Barley House claims to host the "official" bar crawl for St. Patrick's Day. Whether or not that's true is still up for debate, but at least we know they are serious about their day drinking, which is really what is important this weekend. Get more details here.

    The DramandCandleroom
    These two are throwing a parking lot party with DJ Goody and DJ Marvel from noon until 6 pm. Shuttles take you from there to the Greenville Avenue Parade, and they’re running between 8 am and 5 pm. Cost is $5 a head.

    Boxwood Tap+Grill
    Boxwood may not be on Greenville Avenue, but it still has Irish spirit, thanks to Irish Julep pitchers for $22, Irish Mules for $8 and Car Bombs for $8.

    Quarter Bar
    The Quarter Bar is celebrating all weekend with $3 Guinness and Jameson, two for $10 Irish Car Bombs and $2 green Jell-o shots. And by all weekend we mean through Monday, because this is, after all, a three-day weekend for most people.

    Sundown at Granada
    Enjoy the after-parade parking lot party at Sundown if you are into live music. Ten acts perform throughout the day, including Sing Kumba, David Willingham Project, Gravity Feed and Burn Lucky.

    Opens up early for brunch, serving corned beef and cabbage. From 11 am to 2 pm, enjoy Irish cuisine and some damn good drink specials.

    Warwick Melrose Hotel

    Buzzy documentary on late Tejano singer Selena to debut on Netflix

    Selena y Los Dinos was produced by her siblings Suzette and A.B. Quintanilla.

    A documentary about late Tejano singer Selena Quintanilla-Pérez that made a splash at SXSW in Austin is coming to Netflix this winter, the streaming service has confirmed.

    Selena y Los Dinos premiered at the 2025 Sundance Film Festival, and had its Texas debut at SXSW in March. The film racked up awards at both film festivals, including the 2025 SXSW Audience Award in the 24 Beats Per Second category, which focused on musical stories.

    "We are so excited to finally share that our documentary Selena y Los Dinos is coming to Netflix!" said executive producer Suzette Quintanilla in a release. "Grateful to have a platform that helps bring Selena’s story to fans around the world."

    The documentary gives a never-before-seen look into Selena's upbringing and her rise to fame as the "Queen of Tejano Music" alongside her siblings, A.B. III and Suzette. It describes a family rising above financial hardship in the name of making music, while also revealing the close connections that were formed between bandmembers Ricky Vela, Pete Astudillo, and Chris Pérez, who married Selena in 1992.

    The film also recalls the fateful day the 23-year-old singer was shot and killed by her former fan club president, Yolanda Saldívar, on March 31, 1995.

    Directed by Isabel Castro, Selena y Los Dinos feels like a love letter to the late singer from those that knew her the best. Castro told Netflix that she wanted to honor the singer's legacy while also unveiling "new dimensions" of her path to stardom.

    "I am deeply grateful to her family for their trust and support throughout this journey, and I can’t wait for a global audience to experience the magic, heart and community that Selena gave to all of us," Castro said.

    According to Deadline, the streaming deal is estimated to be between $6 to $7 million.
