St Davids Day

Did you celebrate St David's Day?

Happy St David’s Day

On 1 March each year we celebrate our patron Saint, St David who died on that day in 589AD. 

To mark the day, Welsh people around the world wear one or both of our national emblems - a daffodil or leek - and celebrate at special concerts and processions.

This year celebrations are started in February and ran throughout March.  From Mr Feng’s photographs of Wales exhibition in China to Welsh band Super Furry Animals playing in the Bowery Ballroom in New York we were really very busy. Take a look at the events on these pages to see what we got up to.

Did you celebrate? We would love to hear from you and see your pictures. Please get in touch with us at wales.cymru@wales.gsi.gov.uk.
