The excitement is palpable as the 2025 International Rose of Tralee Festival fast approaches, with just a couple of sleeps to go until the official opening ceremony on Friday.
Journalist Aisling Magner spoke to the Carlow Rose Katie Rya at the tour's Limerick stop ahead of the RTÉ broadcast.
Katie is a 26 year old Equality, Diversity and Inclusion Coordinator from Tullow.
The Rose of Tralee international festival is a celebration of Irish heritage, friendship, and pride that continues to capture hearts around the island of Ireland and the world.
