The Saint Patrick's Day celebration in Ireland is about a week long. In recent years more activities have been done on the days around St. Patrick's Day, particularly when it is close to a weekend. While March 17th is the main day, under the organisation of the St. Patrick's Festival there are events on other days. In 2009, it runs from Thursday the 12th of March until Tuesday the 17th of March. See the link below.
Ireland is best known for its rolling, green hills and for the home of St. Patricks Day. (Even though the person that St. Patricks Day was named after, wasn't Irish or from Ireland.)
