Final call for Kildare applicants to enter the Miss Ireland contest

A final call is being made for applications for this year's Miss Kildare.

This year marks the 75th Jubilee of the competition with plans for the largest and most spectacular show at the Royal Theatre in Castlebar on August 19th with 1500 in attendance for the 75th anniversary and Diamond Jubilee year.

The search is on for Miss Kildare 2022 to follow in the footsteps of reigning Miss Kildare title holders who represented the county last year at the Miss Ireland final.

The reigning Miss Kildare North Alannah Pardy did her county proud last year on the Miss Ireland stage scooping the People's Choice sash in the competition having got the highest number of votes on the Miss Ireland App.

This secured her place in the top 15 of the competition.

Alannah is a 20-year-old college student studying Digital Media and Marketing from Maynooth.

A competitive GAA footballer she has been lucky enough to play county level football and represent Kildare in past years.

Also representing Kildare last year was Fiona Ni Threasaigh, 21 years of age from Maynooth. Fiona is currently studying animal science in UCD with the goal of someday going on to study veterinary or go into animal research.
