The Rose of Tralee International Festival and Féile Thrá Lí get underway today.

The 32 roses will arrive to Tralee today, after setting off on the rose tour last Friday.

An official ceremony to welcome the roses to the town will take place at 7pm in Siamsa Tíre; it had been due to take place in the Island of Geese but was moved due to the weather warning.
