Our consensus and memory is that the Philadelphia St Patrick Day Festivities do not interfere much with our meeting plans. You may want to familiarize yourself with the event so you know what to expect. It looks like they wind down when we do, so the biggest impact may be the ride home. Or perhaps you will have the luck of the Irish, and it will be no problem at all.
