March 14 Offers St. Patrick’s Festival At ‘Hit The Bricks’

The fun times every second Saturday in downtown Tyler continue this upcoming weekend during the March edition of 'Hit the Bricks.' The theme for this one? The first ever 'St. Patrick's Festival!' The special theme is fun for the whole family. However, even if you are just looking for something fun to do yourself or with your adult friends, there are many ways to do that, too. Explore the options from the various downtown restaurants, bars, and breweries.

The day's activities start at 9 a.m. with the 'Beauty & the Beast Bicycle Tour' and will begin behind ETX Brewing Co. on College Street. Activities continue throughout the day (and night).
