March brings a rush of spring energy—highs reach 21°C (70°F) and daylight stretches to nearly 12 hours. The city hosts CONEXPO, March Madness watch parties, and St. Patrick’s Day block parties at O’Sheas. Pool season opens, and patios fill with diners. Crowds are intense, especially during conventions and college basketball weekends. Occasional wind or rain can disrupt plans, but the lively atmosphere and mild weather make it one of the most exciting months to visit.
