St. Patrick’s Day 2022 is about to be... shamrockin’.

In Madison, on St. Paddy’s Day, (and the weeks leading up to it) everyone gets to be Irish for the day. From food specials that only Madison’s innovative spirit could come up with (like corned beef atop pizza or all-green sushi) to events that’ll get you out of the house and back into live music and more, we’ve got a lot of memories to catch up on.  Here’s how...
