There are many days throughout the year that the Roman Catholic Church calls "feast days" that celebrate the Blessed Virgin Mary. Four popular feast days include:

May 1 - which celebrates Mary as the Queen of Heaven. Some RC churches have a procession in which a statue of Mary is adorned with a crown.

May 13 - celebrates Mary as Our Lady of Fatima - due to her appearances in Portugal.

August 15 - celebrates the Assumption of Mary into Heaven

December 8 - celebrates the Immaculate Conception of the Blessed Virgin.

And the most important Marian feast of all - January 1 - the Solemnity of Mary, the Mother of God.

How do Catholics honor Mary on her feast days?

There are several ways of honoring the Blessed Virgin Mary on her feast days (as laid down by the Roman Catholic Church) firstly attending Mass on that day has become a tradition for Catholics as is leading a procession for Mary sing Marian hymns (prayerful songs especially composed for Mary) or praying the rosary (a set of prayers allegedly taught by Mary to St Dominic in an apparition). Special prayers are offered on this day asking for Her intercession, help and guidance in issues such as, praying for another child, praying for peace or praying for a husband..Roman Catholic AnswerCatholics honor the Blessed Virgin Mary at all times, but especially on her feast days. We do this, as we should be doing everything, in imitation of Our Blessed Lord, who, as the Sacred Scriptures tell us, honored her and obeyed her His whole Life. The only thing that the Blessed Mother has ever said is summed up in the Scripture verse of St. John's Gospel, 2:5 "Whatsoever He shall say to you, do ye." In other words we honor her specifically by obeying Her, by following Her Son, and obeying Him, Our Blessed Lord.
