Jameson® Irish Whiskey Turns St. Patrick's Day Into a Two-Day Holiday in 2022

DUBLIN, March 3, 2022 /PRNewswire/ --

Whereas due to a certain unnamed and uninvited situation over the past two years, we haven't been able to celebrate properly; then

JAMESON IRISH WHISKEY HEREBY ANNOUNCES:

This year, St Patrick's Day will take place concurrently on Thursday, March 17 and Friday, March 18, 2022, and the holiday will therefore be referred to as "St. Patrick's DAYS," plural, with an "S."

Because two days of coming together with Friends & Family is better than one.

We, Jameson, invite America to join us. By signing up, you agree to celebrate St. Patrick's Day (Responsibly) on Thursday, March 17 and Friday, March 18, however you choose, and are entered for a chance to win* the two prizes below:
•  $20.22 sent via carrier pigeon on Thursday, March 17 to be used solely on St. Patrick's DayS
•  Full breakfast (Irish or not!) to fill you up on Friday, March 18 via a food delivery service

MAY THE LUCK OF THE IRISH BE ON YOUR SIDE.

And to honor those who have steadfastly supported our beloved industry, and who have so resolutely waited for St. Patrick's Day to return, we pledge $75,000 to the Restaurant Workers' Community Foundation. In addition, for everyone that signs up, Jameson will donate an additional $1 in their name up to $25,000.

Happy St. Patrick's DAYS, America.
