Armagh, the home of St Patrick, sets the stage to celebrate the national holiday online from 12th March, writes Shauna McCrudden
Armagh City’s magnificent Cathedrals will be lit up to commemorate St Patrick, the bringer of light. Both St Patrick’s Cathedral (Roman Catholic) and St Patrick’s Cathedral (Church of Ireland) will be adorned in green for the ‘Lighting Up for St Patrick’ event commencing Friday 12th March – 17th March from 4pm – 11pm
We face another year of not being able to celebrate our national holiday, St Patrick’s Day, with spectacular parades and spending time with friends. However, this year promises something different, but equally as entertaining. Armagh, known as the ‘real home of St Patrick’ has unveiled details of a packed six-day schedule of online events to celebrate the famous patron saint with the world this month.
