St Patrick’s Day is celebrated on March 17 which is the anniversary of the death of Saint Patrick. The holiday now tends to extend over several days with celebrations including parades.
Saint Patrick was said to have lived in the fifth century and is the patron saint of Ireland.
And St Patrick’s Day has been observed as a holiday for more than 1,000 years. It falls during the Christian season of Lent but historically the Lenten prohibitions against the consumption of meat were waived so people could dance, drink and feast on the traditional meal of Irish bacon and cabbage.
