She wowed guests on Friday night at the Miss Ireland Diamond ball with her performance ‘Cosmic Love’ by Florence and the Machine on the Harp.
The 37 finalists this year, including Miss Kerry Kasey McCormack, were put through their paces in a challenging competitive process over the last three months testing their skills in debating, public speaking, talent, sports, modelling, social media and each finalist was tasked with raising much-needed awareness and funds for their chosen charities.
Miss Ireland Ivanna McMahon received a lucrative agency contract and a host of prizes including jewellery, gowns, professional photo shoots, beauty and hair products and will jet off to represent her country at the Miss World Festival which is televised in over 100 countries around the world.
She will also enjoy an all-expenses paid trip to the Maldives to do a photoshoot later in the autumn.
