Rose of Tralee International Festival - Co Kerry

Friday 17th - Tuesday 21st August 2012

Based around the famous song “The Rose of Tralee” this is one of Ireland's most popular festivals, connecting the global Irish community since 1959.

Young women of Irish ancestry from all over the world, supported by their friends and families, take part in this personality-based event and a five-day party takes over the Kerry capital.

Parades and fireworks, free open-air concerts and lots of song and dance make this the ideal place to experience Irish warmth and good humour at its best.
