 St. Patrick Day |
 |
On the other hand, Saint Patrick is the patron saint of Ireland. It is celebrated worldwide by the Irish and those of Irish descent and increasingly even by many of non-Irish descent. Other than in London , parades in celebration of this also take place in Paris, Rome, Munich, Moscow, Beijing, Hong Kong, Singapore, Copenhagen and throughout the Americas. St. Patrick's Day is a Christian festival celebrated in the Roman Catholic Church and some other denominations. However, the day always falls in the season of Lent, and it may fall in Holy Week. In church calendars, if St. Patrick's Day falls on a Sunday it is moved to the following Monday. If it falls in Holy Week, it is moved to the second Monday after Easter.
