3. About the Chicago rose of tralee
The Chicago Rose of Tralee is a part of the Rose of Tralee International Festival, held annually in County Kerry, Ireland.

It has since grown to become one of Ireland’s biggest and most beloved festivals, and is celebrated in Irish communities around the globe. Rte’s live coverage of the Rose Selection has helped install the festival in the national psyche, and it has remained their top rating show for many years, with millions tuning in every year for the result. The Rose of Tralee International Festival aims to connect the global Irish community through a selection of young women who reflects the intelligence, compassion and independence of Modern Irish Women.
