About the event
Be part of a new Hibernia Irish Society tradition as we gather for our inaugural St. John's Eve Bonfire on beautiful Front Beach in Ocean Springs.
For centuries, Irish communities have celebrated St. John's Eve with bonfires, fellowship, music, food, and storytelling. This year, we're bringing that tradition to the Mississippi Gulf Coast and inviting members, friends, and families to join us for an unforgettable evening by the water.
Bring a chair, bring a snack if you'd like, and bring your favorite beverage. Hibernia will provide beer for members while supplies last. As the sun sets over the Gulf, we'll gather around the fire to enjoy good conversation, great company, and the beginning of what we hope becomes a cherished annual tradition.
