What is Leprechaun Day?

Leprechaun Day on May 13 celebrates the mischievous little guardians of Irish folklore. Folk tales tell of leprechauns hiding pots of gold at the end of a rainbow and outsmarting anyone who tries to force the secret from them. It is a playful day of treasure hunts, green treats, shamrock crafts and telling the old stories by the fire.

How to celebrate

Mark the day with a poster made in Dayfeed — pick your favourite photo as the background, share it to your story or group chat, and set a reminder so you never miss it next year.
