The quest for the 77th Miss Ireland has started, and the search has officially begun for Miss Roscommon to follow in the footsteps of current Miss Roscommon Eimear Noone.
The twenty year old from Fourmilehouse is studying for post primary teaching, and during her time as Miss Roscommon, Eimear raised funds for the Children’s Health Foundation.
Eimear also helped to raise funds for Miss Ireland’s partner charity the Julian Benson Cystic Fibrosis foundation. She is delighted to help the charity in reaching its goal and informing people about its incredible Wellness Respite Retreat.
The search is now on to find contestants from each county to take part in the Miss Ireland 2024/2025 competition. The winner from each county will represent their county and title at various events, awards and appearances and also take part in a spectacular show on March 29th 2025 to crown the new Miss Ireland and Mr Ireland. Full details on how to enter are available on www.miss-ireland.ie or on the Miss Ireland App now available from Apple App Store, Google Play, @missirelandorg, and @mrirelandorg on Instagram and Facebook. Applications close on August 31st 2024.
The search for Miss Ireland promises to be a fascinating journey because this year, organisers are also delving into the past of the historic competition.
“We are thrilled to announce that we are delving into the captivating history of Miss Ireland. From the inaugural year of the competition in 1947 to the present day, we are seeking photographs that will unravel the timeless elegance and legacy of Miss Ireland and those crowned for each county in Ireland through the years,” said Brendan Marc Scully, Director of Miss Ireland. “We would especially love to find and celebrate all those who we don’t have records for going back to the fifties, sixties, seventies, eighties and nineties.” If you or someone you know were crowned Miss Ireland or won a county title over the years, please contact events@miss-ireland.ie.
The finalists of Miss Ireland this year will be put through their paces in a challenging competitive process, testing their skills in debating, public speaking, talent, sports, modelling, and social media. Each finalist will also be tasked with raising much-needed awareness and funds for their chosen charities.
Established in 1947, Miss Ireland has been the launch pad for many eminent, successful, and inspiring women in Ireland. In recent years the Miss Ireland Franchise has raised over €350,000 for various charities including Laura Lynn, Temple Street, Alzheimer’s Ireland, Pieta House, The Cari Foundation and this year are proud to partner with The Julian Benson Cystic Fibrosis Foundation.
The winner of Miss Ireland and Mr Ireland will receive a lucrative agency contract and a host of prizes and then both will jet off to represent their country at their respective Mr World and Miss World Festivals which is televised in over 100 countries around the world.
