The Vatican has announced that Saint Patrick's Day would be observed on March 15, 2008, instead of the traditional date of March 17, since Saint Patrick's, will coincide with the second day of the Holy Week.
Under the Catholic Church's rules, the saint's feast day does not rank as high as the Monday before Easter.
