Live music, traditional Irish party games, pie and peas supper and a raffle will all feature at the event, which is free and will be opened at 4pm by Celtic Rose School of Irish Dancing from Doncaster.

It has been organised in aid of Rotherham Hospice by the family of Irishman Vincent Gillen, who died in the hospice last year after battling cancer.

If it proves popular, the Shamrocks celebration could become an annual fixture in the calendar.
