The 2013 Rose of Tralee was the 55th edition of the annual Irish international festival, held on 19-20 August 2013 at the Festival Dome, in Tralee, County Kerry. The festival ran for a total of 7 days; two additional days were added due to The Gathering Ireland 2013.[1] Many acts performed in Tralee during the festival, including; JLS, Ryan Dolan, The Coronas, Sharon Shannon and The Stunning. Shane Filan made his debut solo performance during the televised selection show on 20 August.
The Texas Rose, 25-year-old Haley O'Sullivan, was named as the 2013 International Rose of Tralee. This was the first time ever that Texas had won the event, and it was the first US victory at the event in six years when the New York Rose Lisa Murtagh was named the 2007 International Rose of Tralee.[2][3][4] A memorable highlight from the festival was when the boyfriend of the New Orleans rose proposed to her during the live TV broadcast.
