Every year more than 30 International Roses come to Tralee, supported by friends and family. The Festival comprises Rose Selection, family carnival, fashion show and live concerts, in addition to welcoming visitors and delegates from regions worldwide represented by each Rose. During this time the town's streets are
transformed into a feast of parades, music, circus, funfair, markets and live performance.
All eyes are on the Roses, who travel from the UK, America,
Australia, Canada, New Zealand, Europe, the Middle East and of course Ireland, to compete for the coveted title of Rose of Tralee (the essence of which is based on the popular song of the same name). Philadelphia is proud to be part of this wonderful tradition.
