St Patrick’s Day celebrations continue as people show skin in Sydney

As the sun began to set on a rowdy St Patrick’s Day, people started getting a little bit cheeky as celebrations continued into the night. 

Thousands of people flooded Sydney streets dressed in green, hoping for some luck of the Irish.

The traditional Celtic day attracted punters to the CBD wearing over sized green hats, green novelty headbands and face paint.

While some people were spotted wearing hues of green head-to-toe complete with matching eye shadow, others opted for quirky leprechaun suits.

One brave reveller was seen wearing a bright green suit while a woman was wearing a mermaid-style green sequin skirt.

Exhausted from a long Saturday of Irish antics, a woman was lucky enough to get a ride from a fellow reveller giving her the opportunity to rest her feet. 

Jameson was ripe through Sydney, giving those keen a taste of the popular Irish beverage – some even wearing tattoos with the logo.

Despite wearing the country’s lucky colour, one person appeared unlucky while another person seemed to have a heated discussion with them.

Not everyone had a pleasant time celebrating St Patrick’s Day as an altercation took place on the streets between at least five people.
