Singing, dancing, a parade and a pint or two: the Irish have always known how to party...
Find your Irish roots for the weekend and join the paddy parade on Sunday Mar 16 2014. If anyone knows how to party, it's the Irish, and on St Patrick's Day they do it bigger and better than ever. Follow the St Paddy's Day Parade floats and marching band, which begins in Piccadilly at 2pm, then head to Trafalgar Square for a whole load o' craic at the anual festival. There'll be dancing, singing, Irish food, comedy and Gaelic-themed entertainment for the kids. Be sure to go green this March.
St Patrick's Day: what's the objective?
St Patrick's Day (Monday March 17) is a day dedicated to the Patron Saint of Ireland. Along with the religious aspects of the Saint's day, the festival is traditionally celebrated with 'wearing of the green' and shamrocks. The biggest of the festivities take place in Ireland but St Patrick's Day is widely celebrated by Irish ex-pats around the world. London has marked the day with public celebrations since 2002 and these celebrations attract huge crowds of revellers.
