In the 18th century, Irish emigrants brought Saint Patrick’s Day traditions and celebrations to the USA, making it one of the most celebrated days in America.
The first celebrations of Saint Patrick’s Day in America date back to 1737 in Boston, followed by the celebrations in New York in 1762.
With time, the celebrations got bigger and the places with most Irish-American residents left no stone unturned to commemorate this day.
There was a significant rise in Irish Patriotism seen in America. Irish Aid Societies were formed to celebrate the Irish Culture in the country by organizing parades and several other events.
