Listed below are some Traditional Irish Music sessions in the state of Florida. Please CALL the Pub before showing up to A) make sure there is a session going on and B) make sure you’d be a welcome addition to the session.

To the Best of our knowledge, all sessions are being “delayed” until the local Health Authorities deem it safe to get together again. Please check with each pub to ask, however!
