Green & Fortune’s annual St Patrick’s Lunch returned to Kings Place on Friday 13th March 2026, raising £85,000 for Hospitality Action and The London Irish Centre. The event welcomed over 220 guests from across the hospitality industry and London’s Irish community for an afternoon of celebration, connection and fundraising.
Running since 2019, the event continues to grow each year, with organisers once again bringing the hospitality community together to raise vital funds for the two charities, which support hospitality workers and the Irish community in London. Fundraising includes a raffle, online and live auction. The afternoon concluded with live music and a traditional sing-along celebration, capturing the spirit of St Patrick’s Day while bringing guests together for a shared cause.
Auction lots included a luxury London weekend at 47 Park Street, Mayfair, a weekend trip to Paris and hospitality tickets to see Harry Styles live at Wembley Stadium among others.
