religious holiday celebrated
internationally on 17 March. It
commemorates Saint Patrick (c. AD

of the patron saints of Ireland, and
the arrival of Christianity in
Ireland. It is observed by the
Catholic Church, the Anglican
Communion (especially the Church of
Ireland), the Eastern Orthodox
Church and Lutheran Church. Saint
Patrick's Day was made an official
feast day in the early 17th century,
and has gradually become a secular
celebration of Irish culture in
general.
The day
is generally characterised by the
attendance of church services,
wearing of green attire (especially
shamrocks), and the lifting of
Lenten restrictions on eating and
drinking alcohol, which is often
proscribed during the rest of the
season.

the Republic of Ireland Northern

celebrated by the Irish diaspora,
especially in places such as Great

Patrick's Day is probably the most
widely celebrated saints day in the
world. |
