SAINT David\u2019s Day \u2013 or\u00a0<\/span>Dydd<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>G\u0175yl<\/span>\u00a0Dewi – celebrates the patron Saint of Wales on March 1, the anniversary of his death in 589 AD.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>
\nCommemorating the patron Saint has been a national tradition in Wales for centuries, but is not a national holiday, despite regular campaigning to make it one.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>
\nSaint David is remembered each year for the miracles he is believed to have performed in Wales, most famously causing the ground beneath him to rise while preaching in\u00a0<\/span>Llandewi<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>Brefi<\/span>.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>
\nThe day is celebrated across Wales, with traditional Eisteddfods, parades, daffodils, leeks, rarebit and Welsh cakes popping up everywhere, from Anglesey to St David\u2019s itself.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>
\nBut how can you celebrate St David\u2019s Day 2019 in Cardiff?<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>
