t’s arguably the world’s most famous beer and today, Guinness celebrates its 250th birthday. Celebrations kick off in Dublin, Ireland, where a host of musicians including Kelly Rowland, Sir Tom Jones and Kasabian will perform at venues across the city.
But that’s not all -- the Black Eyed Peas will be performing in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia and Sean Paul will entertain crowds in Lagos, Nigeria.
It's unsurprising that Guinness is throwing a global shindig to commemorate Arthur’s Day -- named after Arthur Guinness, the founder of Guinness, who signed a 9,000 year lease on Dublin’s St James's Gate Brewery 250 years ago. In fact, Nigeria is one of Guinness’s biggest markets – according to a report published in the Los Angeles Times, “Guinness now sells more beer in Nigeria than it does” in Ireland.
If you are lucky enough to live in one of the 4 cities -- Dublin, Lagos, Kuala Lumpur, and New York -- hosting tonight’s concerts, go to the Guinness website to get more details on what’s happening where.
The party kicks off at 5.59 pm in Dublin with a toast to Arthur Guinness, before carrying on to other cities. Guinness is now brewed in almost
50 countries, with ten million glasses drunk around the world every day.
Cheers! Guinness Beer Turns 250
