TraleeToday.ie’s coverage of the Rose of Tralee International Festival was brought to you by AIB Tralee

Photographer Domnick Walsh captures the excitement after Kirsten Mate Maher won the Rose of Tralee 2018 crown last night on stage in the Festival Dome at the Rose of Tralee International Festival.
THE colour and atmosphere of the Rose of Tralee International Festival has been expertly captured for decades now by photographer Domnick Walsh.
The Tralee native is commissioned by the Festival organisers to follow the Roses, the parades, Rose Ball, fashion show and all the fun events around town during the week so he’s a very busy man.
The result is hundreds of great photos and here’s just a few capturing the fun over the past week. Scroll down for photos…
