The Blue Jean Country Queen Festival has been bringing contestants from across Ireland and beyond to Athboy in County Meath for almost four decades, combining fun, friendship and community spirit with a unique competition that celebrates the best of Macra na Feirme.
Clare had plenty to celebrate at this year’s festival, with Sixmilebridge Kilmurry Macra member Bríd Gilligan finishing as runner-up after a memorable Bank Holiday weekend of interviews, dancing, fancy dress, music and plenty of craic.
