In many parts of the world St Patrick’s Day is a celebration of the Irish culture and one of Ireland’s patron saints, St Patrick. People come together in honour of St Patrick’s life and his achievements.

Although it is not a public holiday ‘Down Under’, it is a day that is well celebrated in Australia and a day when many dress in the colour green. Shamrocks, leprechauns and pots of gold are commonly found symbolising the special day for the Irish and many of our pubs, and restaurants embrace the St Patrick’s Day celebrations and Parades within the Hawkesbury and our cities.
