St. Patrick's Day is celebrated every year on March 17 in recognition of St. Patrick's death, which occurred on that day sometime during the fifth century. The tradition of the St. Patrick's Day Parade began in New York City in 1762 when Irish soldiers in the English army sought to reconnect with their roots.References:
