St. Patrick’s Day is the global celebration of Irish culture and heritage and is celebrated in many different parts of the world. If you’re of Irish descent or you just love a reason to celebrate, our unique St Patrick’s Day gift ideas will help you honour the foremost patron saint of the Emerald Isle!
Many legends have surrounded St. Patrick over time, such as that he drove all the snakes out of Ireland and used the shamrock to explain the meaning of the Trinity for Christians. Whether legend or truth, St. Patrick has become a symbol of Irish Heritage and is celebrated on March 17th each year.
The Patron Saint's day is more than just a religious festival nowadays, with feasts of traditional Irish food, parades, dancing, music and of course drinking all forming parts of the festivities.
The first St. Patrick’s Day Parade was not actually held in Ireland- it was held in Boston in 1737. Many cities around the world have had a great excuse to throw a party or Céilidh ever since!Many people choose to wear the colours of the flag of the Republic of Ireland at these celebrations, which have now spread to many different countries around the world! Legend has it that wearing green makes you invisible to leprechauns, who would normally pinch you if they saw you!
March 17th is a happy occasion, and it is estimated that over 13 million pints of Guinness will be consumed worldwide on that one day. May the luck of the Irish be with you to help with your inevitable hangover!
