St. Patrick’s Day with The Musical Hammers

Celebrate St. Patrick’s Day at Bok Tower Gardens with a spirited Celtic program by The Musical Hammers. This talented group of hammered dulcimer musicians brings energy and charm to every performance, blending their instruments with guitar, penny whistle, mandolin, banjo, psaltery, and even steel drum. Their lively repertoire spans Celtic jigs and hornpipes, Appalachian fiddle tunes, waltzes, holiday favorites, calypso rhythms, hymns, patriotic marches, classical pieces, and singalong classics. With 15 years of performing at community and private events—including five years at the Florida State Fair’s Cracker Country—The Musical Hammers continue to share the joy of this centuries-old instrument. Don’t miss this festive performance filled with tradition, talent, and toe-tapping melodies.

Chef Matt will have plenty of delicious Irish specials and pints of Guinness for sale.
