Science, dung-spitting, and Michael Collins artifacts: It can only be the Rose of Tralee

After a bizarre night of dung-spitting, science experiments, and Dáithí Ó Sé playing dress-up, the country is waiting with baited breath to find out what else the Rose of Tralee could possibly have in store.

The second and final half of the annual festival takes place tonight, and while organisers are keeping tight-lipped about which lovely lady will be Maria Walsh’s successor, sources have hinted at another wild night ahead.

“We’ve some great party pieces, we’ve a few stunts as well, and we’ve some great stories,” Dáithí teased, though he would say no more than that.
