St. Patrick's Day is a cultural a religious celebration held in march 17Th to commemorate the arrival of Christianity in Ireland by the hands of Saint Patrick, the foremost patron saint of the island. There are also formal gatherings such as banquets and dances, although these were more common in the past. The participants generally include marching bands, the military, fire brigades, cultural organizations, charitable organizations, voluntary associations, youth groups, fraternities, and so on. However, over time, many of the parades have become more akin to a carnival. The St Patrick's Day custom of "drowning the shamrock" or "wetting the shamrock" was historically popular, especially in Ireland. At the end of the celebrations, a shamrock is put into the bottom of a cup, which is then filled with whiskey, beer, or cider. It is then drunk as a toast to St Patrick, Ireland, or those present.
Today's St Patrick's Day celebrations have been greatly influenced by those that developed among the Irish diaspora, Celebrations generally involve public parades and festivals, Irish traditional music sessions, and the wearing of green attire or shamrocks (a three-leaved plant, that used St. Patrick to explain the Holy Trinity to the pagan Irish) and copious consumption of alcohol. The holiday has been celebrated in North America since the late 18Th century. while not a legal holiday in the United States, is nonetheless widely recognized and observed throughout the country as a celebration of Irish and Irish-American culture.
