Hello Kristin! Thanks for visiting us here at the Disney Parks Moms Panel. I am happy to see you are vacationing in March, we have been many times over your travel dates and always enjoy ourselves.
The main celebration for St. Patrick's Day takes place at Downtown Disney. The celebration is called
Mighty St. Patrick's Festival and is on the calendar for March 7-17, 2014. During the Festival there will be live music, a step by step lesson on how to do the Irish jig, classic Irish food and drinks, Irish history and some merchandise at Raglan Road's Shop. Kids can enjoy face painting, temporary tattoos and watching the stilt walkers and live statues. During this celebration kids and adults also have the rare opportunity to take a picture with Kermit, learn to draw him, play games and rock out to a DJ. This area is called Muppets Mighty Family Zone and sounds perfect for you and your family! There will also be some 3D chalk art to enjoy. How cool is that?
Have a wonderful vacation at Walt Disney World. If I can help you with any other questions you may have, please don't hesitate to ask.
