Toronto St. Patrick's Day Flashmob by Tourism Ireland
Tourism Ireland, together with the 100-member newchoir, Maureen's Reel Irish Dancers and the Celtic Dance Centre, surprised and delighted an unsuspecting public with a Glee-style performance of Irish favourites "Beautiful Day" by U2, "Brown-eyed Girl" by Van Morrison and "Chasing Cars" by Snow Patrol at Yonge-Dundas Square in Toronto. The performance was coordinated by Tourism Ireland, Scott Pietrangelo, Maureen Mulvey O'Leary and filmed and edited by Casey and Kody McWilliams with additional camerawork by Nathan Legiehn and Brook McWilliams.

I'm old enough to remember the original when it was on the radio circa 1967 when I was in my mid-teens. I loved that song by Van Morrison.

@ScottPietrangelo Shameless self-promotion. I love it!
We are comin g to experrience Ireland in September, 2022. Very excited.
brilliant
BRAVO BRAVO!!
@Jeffrey Remick: Flash mobs ARE organized events! Whatever convinced you that they weren't?!? Look at all of the best and most famous ones to date. They ALL involve PA systems, microphones (hidden or otherwise), multiple camera set-ups, you name it. Hell, even some of the worst ones involve pre-planning. That's how these things work. And this one's a real treat!
Loved it! My daughter is a member of newchoir! Wish I could have been there!
That was great! I wish I was on Yonge Street today to see the real thing. Thanks for the email link, Tourism Ireland! Off to enter the contest now - with my fingers crossed!
Thank you! Faith and begorrah!
Hey there newchoir - what a fantastic performance and arrangement! A great reason to be in Toronto, or go to Ireland.
2022 will be some Paddys day, wait...🇮🇪🇮🇪☘☘
Même le chien aime, c'est un signe !
Having the mikes and speakers out is like announcing there's going to be a performance.
aha, i was there ! you can see me ! :D
Awesome! Love the video! :D
I'm from Ireland and going in three days to limerick
If you liked the "performance", our next concert is on May 12, Ryerson Theatre in Toronto.
@canoecarrier You know it! :)
We have St Patrick here in Kenya
Sounds awesome! Where can I see them live?
2:12 cute :D
Nunca he sabido por que, pero me escantan los Irlandeses
@karezza6 yep lol
@Soulrak87 Ehh. I'm in that square all the time and there's always some equipment around and puttering near the stage for festivals and whatever. Looked like a regular day in the square from the video.
if everybody in d world was IRISH we would a very happy but drunk society. people lets get it all together the world needs the IRISH.

Again, not everyone over here is drunk on Guinness and having mashed potatoes.
@ehddd1 newchoir is performing at Ryerson theatre on Saturday May 12th at 8pm!
This year they do it, but freeze in typical Hogtown horrible weather.
@ehddd1 Ryerson Theatre May 12. Tickets from Ticketscene
PRIMERO HEHEHHEHEHE SUPER VIDEO :)
That trip to Northern Ireland in the description....don't bother entering. Dublin's where you wanna be.
@Hannahdoobers Hello Hannah - if you press pause and let the video load you can watch it - our official video is high definition so it takes a wee minute to load - Enjoy
Speakers visible to the public is not a flash mob. This is a performance.

Funny enough, we wear normal people clothes too.
This was great but to be honest the one you did in Sydney last year was better.
When you have microphones and speakers out then it's not a flash mob. This is a performance not a flash mob.
Why the women of middle ages do not dance?

+Oskar Alpary Because you need the energy and stamina of an athlete my friend. Irish Dance is not easy, try it sometime.
This is not a flash mob. It's a performance....as on any stage.
F
Why didn't you get proper dancers who could actually dance? lol
