Dublin invites you to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day

Every year in mid-March, Dublin celebrates St. Patrick's Day. The holiday is visited by many caring tourists who participate in colorful events, festivals and parades for several days.

Since the official color of the celebration is green, the facades of the buildings will be given an appropriate shade with the help of powerful illumination, and the participants will wear green suits, paint their faces and even beards in this color! The symbol of the celebration is the shamrock, which can be seen on the hands, faces, and other parts of the body of the celebrating Irish and guests of the city. It is believed that it symbolizes the unity of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit and is dedicated to the most significant event in the history of Ireland – baptism.

Do not forget that the Irish holiday itself is considered religious, during which it is customary to attend church and arrange national feasts. And only towards evening the celebrations turn into parades and large-scale concert events.

In the center of the parade is a hero in the form of St. Patrick, who leads a crowd of thousands of participants. So that the throats of the singing Irish do not dry up, favorite drinks are poured in local pubs, and dance groups compete among themselves for the title of the brightest and most incendiary participant in the parade.

Guests of Dublin are introduced not only to the celebration, but also to the national cuisine. The pubs offer signature dishes such as Quick Irish Stew with specialty bread, confectionery, apple cake and ice cream punch.
