Irish Culture and Events
The Rose of Tralee International Festival is one of Ireland's largest and longest running festivals, celebrating over 60 years. The heart of the festival is the selection of the Rose of Tralee which brings young women of Irish descent from around the world to County Kerry, Ireland for a global celebration of Irish culture. The festival also includes street entertainment, carnival, live concerts, theatre, circus, markets, funfair, fireworks and our internationally renowned Rose Parade. The 2019 Washington, D.C.
