The Origins of Paddy's Day

Lá fhéile Pádraig sona dhaoibh! (Pronounced: ‘Lah fay-leh Pah-drig Sun-uh Yee-uv)!

Happy St Patrick's Day everybody!

This week we're diving into another #Irish #festival that the whole world celebrates!

This #March17th rivers will be dyed green, much #Guinness will be drunk and many parades will be marched in all corners of the globe to celebrate St Patrick, the patron #saint of #Ireland.

But did you know he's not the only patron saint of Ireland?

Any idea when the first #PaddysDay march took place?

Or where it happened?

Join us this week to find all these answers and more. The origins of Paddy's Day are very interesting and like many other things, are rooted in #Ancient #Pagan #Ireland.
