Along with the Leaning Tower of Pisa or Sydney Opera House over 70 landmarks worldwide are turning their evening lights green tonight, celebrating Ireland's national holiday, Saint Patrick's Day.
First one to change colours was Friends Arena in Solna, new national stadium of Sweden. And it will also be the last to keep it, as the lights will remain green until March 22, when Sweden welcome Ireland at their stadium.
Two other venues are Allianz Arena in Munich and Anfield in Liverpool. The latter received special green lamps to change the mood, as it doesn't provide the kind of illumination two more modern venues do.
Last year's celebrations also included various stadia, among which Ireland's Euro 2012 host Poznan Municipal Stadium turned green.
