17 March: celebrate St Patrick’s Day in Ireland and stay with Relais & Châteaux

A land that has inspired countless filmmakers, the country of James Joyce and Guinness, home to its rugby XV and symbolised by the shamrock (not the four-leaf clover!), on 17 March Ireland is the place to be for a very special tradition: St Patrick’s Day. This national holiday celebrates Saint Patrick, who converted Ireland to Christianity. For four days (from 16 to 19 March 2017), this year’s celebration has been transformed into a major festival, the St Patrick’s Festival, with a slogan that speaks volumes “Ireland You Are”.
Part national celebration, part cultural happening, no fewer than thirty events will take place showcasing artists from all walks of life, singers, poets and dancers, to name but a few. It is the perfect opportunity to discover Irish culture, its soul and its riches, as well as its infinite sense of hospitality. Why not prolong the experience and stay in one of our Relais & Châteaux properties that offer a wonderful welcome, something so dear to the hearts of the Irish!  Discover Ireland
