Annual feast day and festival celebrating St Patrick, one of the patron saints of Ireland. The day is the national holiday of the Irish people and is celebrated in major cities and towns around the world.
Saint Patrick's Day (Irish: Lá ’le Pádraig or Lá Fhéile Pádraig), colloquially St. Paddy's Day or Paddy's Day, is an annual feast day which celebrates Saint Patrick (circa 385–461), one of the patron saints of Ireland. It takes place on 17 March, the date on which Patrick is held to have died.
St. Patrick's Festival is Ireland's official celebration for Ireland's national holiday – St. Patrick's Day. Around the globe on the 17th March, Ireland is celebrated with parties and parades but the BIG party is here in Ireland where we celebrate in style with five days and nights of fantastic celebratory events, most of which are free.
