Ziua Sf. Patrick 2012 – Bucuresti – Flash-mob Lipscani

Ziua Nationala a Irlandei, ‘St. Patrick’s Day’, este sarbatorita sambata, la Bucuresti, in Centrul Vechi, printr-un spectacol desfasurat in zona Lipscani-Smardan, in imediata vecinatate a BNR. Pe scena amplasata special pentru acest eveniment au urcat, de-a lungul zilei, artisti romani, irlandezi si maghiari, care sarbatoresc Ziua Irlandei cu cantece si dansuri, evocand buna dispozitie si spiritul vesel si ‘verde’ caracteristic irlandezilor. “Programul zilei” a inclus o mini-parada inedita care a “cutreierat” stradutele principale ale Centrului Istoric in ritmuri inconfundabile de tobe si cimpoaie si spiridusi care au “animat” zona, oferindu-le trecatorilor cate un trifoi sau tricolor pictat pe obraz.
