The RTÉ Rose of Tralee International Festival is back on screens next Monday and Tuesday as host Dáithí Ó Sé welcomes the 33 International Roses to Munster Technological University's Kerry Sports Academy.

After the festival's three-year hiatus due to the pandemic, Ó Sé introduced the 33 Roses from Ireland, Britain, the US, Canada, Australia and the Middle East to the media.

"I think we all really missed it," he said of the mainstay's return.

"We will have a few surprises up our sleeves as well when it comes to party pieces"

"I do feel like it's another sign of things getting back to normal. I am also looking forward to meeting the incredible 33 International Roses."
