Local statutory mode, country coverage, date rule, timezone spread, and related planning context for Saint Patrick's Day.

The rows below are built from this holiday's actual route, country, local-name, date, rule, timezone, observed-country, and adjacent-calendar records. They make Saint Patrick's Day in United Kingdom distinct from holidays with similar names or the same season.

The practical risk is not just the date. Saint Patrick's Day can affect closure expectations, bridge-day leave, country-specific substitutions, cross-border date drift, and timezone reminders differently in each jurisdiction.

This page keeps the date answer separate from statutory verification. The catalog supplies the tracked date rows; the checkpoints below show which authority, story profile, local specificity, and dossier layer should be reviewed when the holiday affects bookings, payroll, travel, or public-service hours.

This block separates the local United Kingdom holiday answer from two common sources of programmatic-calendar confusion: countries that use the same holiday name on different dates, and future rows that are projected from a rule rather than directly tracked.

Saint Patrick's Day is scheduled on March 17 each year. In the tracked 2025-2027 data window, it stays on March 17 and only the weekday changes.

Because Saint Patrick's Day stays on the same calendar date, the only year-over-year planning shift is the day of the week — that controls long-weekend math, school-closure timing, and how the holiday lands in payroll cycles.

The current static build keeps the tracked 2025-2027 date window online for curated holiday detail pages.

The first rows are taken from the tracked catalog window (2025-2027); rows after the catalog cut-off are projected forward because Saint Patrick's Day has a fixed-date rule. Easter-cycle, lunar, and country-specific custom-rule holidays are never projected — those rows simply stop at the catalog edge.

Projected rows assume the fixed-date rule continues to repeat the same calendar date; weekend-substitution and other statutory adjustments may shift the actual local observance day.
