Celebrate St. Patrick’s Day with the Gaillards!

Published on February 29, 2024 by Maxime Jargot

Like a party "Eire"

Hello guys, Sunday March 17th is St. Patrick's Day! As at Brive Tourisme we love beer and Ireland, we will give you some suggestions so that everything is ready that day.

Who was Saint Patrick?

Before giving you all the good Irish tips in the country, a little history:

Saint Patrick is the story of an apostle who was quick to explain the concept of Christianity to the Irish with a clover. As Patrick was a little late (4 centuries to be exact), he took the opportunity to chase all the snakes (representing ancient beliefs) from the island.

A bit like if I explained the concept of experiential tourism to you with a flip-flop and suddenly your sunburn disappeared.
