Saint Patrick's Day
Saint Patrick's Day is the national day of Ireland and the feast day of Saint Patrick, the fifth-century missionary who is Ireland's foremost patron saint. According to tradition he was born in Roman Britain, was captured and brought to Ireland as a slave, escaped, and returned later as a bishop to spread Christianity. A legend, first recorded in writing in the eighteenth century, says he used the three-leaved shamrock to explain the Trinity. The feast is observed by the Catholic Church, the Church of Ireland and several other churches.
In Ireland the day combines a religious feast with a national celebration, with Mass in the morning and parades, concerts and festivals in towns and cities, including a large multi-day festival in Dublin. Green clothing, shamrocks and flags are everywhere. The day is celebrated even more widely among the Irish diaspora, with large parades in New York, Boston, Chicago and many other cities, and landmarks around the world are lit in green.
