The Miss Ireland Organisation is searching for the next Miss Limerick 2025 to represent the county at the much anticipated Miss Ireland final on June 14th

Young women across Limerick are invited to step into the spotlight and embrace a journey of empowerment, leadership, and community impact to follow in the footsteps of reigning Miss Limerick Alicia O Callaghan (20) from Ballingarry who is a Nursing student by day and a DJ by night.  The charity Alicia chose to work with as Miss Limerick was Diabetes Ireland. This charity is very close to her heart as every year new technology is being made to make Type 1 Diabetics lives just that little bit better. Alicia’s hobbies include going to the gym, djing, hanging out with friends and family’s and road trips around Ireland!

Since 1947, the Miss Ireland pageant has celebrated intelligence, ambition, and cultural pride, evolving into a platform that champions female leadership and philanthropy. This year’s competitors will join a legacy of inspiring role models including Former Miss World Rosanna Davison, Pamela Flood, Holly Carpenter, current Miss Ireland Jasmine Gerhardt and many more.  In recent years the Miss Ireland Franchise has raised over €350,000 for various charities including Laura Lynn, Temple Street, Alzheimer’s Ireland, Pieta House, The Cari Foundation and The Julian Benson Cystic Fibrosis Foundation.

Each finalist will advance to the national event for a chance to claim the Miss Ireland crown at a spectacular final in the luxurious Knightsbrook Hotel and Resort in Trim Co Meath on June 14th.  The 77th crowned Miss Ireland will receive a lucrative agency contract and a host of prizes and will then have a chance to jet off to represent Ireland next year on an international stage at the Miss World Festival which is televised in over 100 countries around the world.  She will also enjoy a trip to Indonesia.

Current Miss Ireland Jasmine Gerhardt will jet off to India on May 3rd until June 1st 2025 to represent Ireland at Miss World 2025. Jasmine’s aspiration is to work for the United Nations, enabling her to travel to developing nations where women’s voices often go unheard. The law luminary has been an inspirational and prolific Miss Ireland and has used her platform to bring her aspirations to fruition.  She spent time in Lebanon at the Refugee Camp on the Syrian Border.  She went to Kolkata in India, as a Brand Ambassador for the Hope Foundation.  She also visited Cape Town where she was introduced to the life-changing work of Mellon Educate and met with The Young Africa Organisation, an incredible charity that operates in Zimbabwe and other African countries.
