This Weekend is the 2017 Rose of Tralee Selection Weekend

Standard

The Rose of Tralee festival is an international competition which is celebrated among Irish Communities all over the world. The festival, held annually in the town of Tralee, in County Kerry, takes its inspiration from a nineteenth-century ballad of the same name about a woman called Mary, who because of her beauty was called The Rose of Tralee.

NY has a long history of participation in the festival due to the large number  of Irish Immigrants who came to the NY. The winner of the NY Festival this weekend will go on to Tralee in August.  Come support the lovely ladies from NY this weekend who are representing the State and their Irish heritage.

The first Rose of Tralee festival began in 1959 but this year’s festival will be even more special as it is one of the biggest events of this year’s The Gathering Ireland.

On April 30, you can also get VIP TICKETS to have a meet and greet with Phantom of the Opera star, Ciaran Sheehan.
