Hello everyone,
Strings & Things will be planning our 3rd summer festival scheduled for July 11th 2026, more details will be released before the end of the year, stay tuned! However you won’t have to wait until summer 2026 to enjoy a Strings & Things event. We will be hosting our 2nd annual PaddyFest Point Roberts on March 7th 2026, at Kiniski’s Reef featuring The WhiskeyDicks and Portland Celtic Rockers, The Coming Up Threes!
If you enjoyed our summer event, and trust us to bring skilled, talented musicians and deliver high quality, high energy entertainment you will not want to miss this event! Both bands are party bands that will keep you on the dance floor all night. What’s even better is that these bands have a history of combining forces to create electrifying collaborations.
We are investing in a tent to accommodate as many people as possible, we are humbly asking for your support so we can make this an annual event. We will have a limited number of early bird tickets available for $35, general admission will be $40. Please support us by telling all your friends and families. Come dance with your neighbors, support your local business and enjoy one hell of a party!

Here’s just a few pics that have surfaced so far from our absolutely epic Shamrock Run show today! Thank you to @shamrockpdx , @kellsportland and everyone in PORTLAND!! For showing up today and all weekend long and reminding us how important community and celebration is in these times. The Coming Up Trio will perform Tuesday 4pm at Kells 2nd Ave and 6pm at Kells Brewpub, and @whistleboy plays Tuesday at Murphy’s Pub in Seattle so come out and gather one more time and raise a pint with us on St. Patrick’s Day proper. We love you Shamrock Run and we love you Portland!
Throwback to Paddyfest Point Roberts such a magical day! We are lucky to live here, lucky to have wonderful musician friends in our lives that create magic & bring joy! AI Is coming for a lot of things but it can NEVER replace the magic of live music, the human connection & joy it evokes. Those nerds in Silicon Valley want us in goggles at home by ourselves. To that we say no! #analog #humanity #joy #livemusic #magic
🎶🇮🇪A HUGE SATURDAY NIGHT OF MUSIC UNDER THE KELLS WATERFRONT TENT!🇮🇪🎶
