Daithi O’Se launching the 2018 Rose of Tralee festival
“If you look at the Rose of Tralee from the beginning, there was a set of rules from the first day and those rules have changed as the years went on.
“The Rose of Tralee has always been forwarding thinking, say for example there was a time where if you had a child you weren’t allowed to enter, that changed a good few years ago.
“Trans women in the Rose of Tralee; I just can’t wait to get the first trans woman up on stage because it’s going to be great fun.
“It’s about being inclusive, we’re all here together, it’s a very safe place and it’s a good fun, happy place to be,”
Daithi O’Se Speaking to RTÉ Entertainment at today’s Rose of Tralee festival launch.
