Saint Patricks Day
They thought on moving the date but they decided to celebrated on its original day, March 17.
The date of the feast is occasionally moved by church authorities due to March 17 falling in Holy Week; this last happened in 1940, when Saint Patrick's Day was observed on 3 April in order to avoid it coinciding with Palm Sunday, and will happen again in 2008, when it shall be held on 15 March to avoid the second day in Holy Week. It means we will be on the plane while Dublin celebrates Saint Patrick's Day.
