Dressing up in green on St Patrick’s Day<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Many people wear something green on St Patrick’s Day to celebrate their Irish heritage. The Irish wear a small bunch of Shamrocks on the right side of their outer clothing. The Shamrocks are blessed in ceremonies all over Ireland by either the local Priests or Bishops. Known as the ‘Blessing of the Shamrock’.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Parades & festivals<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Though the feast of St. Patrick began in Ireland, the first St Patrick’s Day parade took place in New York City in 1766. Today parades for St. Patrick’s Day attract millions of people to celebrate being Irish for a day. It wasn’t until 1995 when the Irish decided to start parading in Dublin. The mega parades last over 5 days. Events include parties, performances, concerts, and funfairs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Holy day of obligation<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

The Christians in Ireland attend Church on St Patrick’s Day, a Holy Day of Obligation. Families would dress in green hued clothing, with Shamrocks pinned on their coats, and unitedly attend Church.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After mass, families would enjoy a traditional roast dinner, consisting of meat & veg served along with roast and mashed potatoes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The drinking of green beer<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Yes, drinking green beer on St. Patrick’s Day is a big deal, even though you pushed and squashed in an Irish pub that serves green beer! Pretty much everyone knows that St. Patty’s Day is smack in the middle of Lent season, which means that Christians can overlook the Lent period’s limitations for one day and feasts in honour of St. Patrick.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
