From finding out who St Patrick really is and why the colour green is associated with the day, here is everything you need to know about St Patrick’s Day. St. Patrick's Day is celebrated on March 17 every year, no matter what day of the week the date falls on. This particular day was chosen to celebrate the Irish holiday because it was the day St Patrick died in A.D 461. This year, St Patrick's Day is on Friday, March 17.Who is St Patrick and what did he do?
