Festival chiefs have put a call out to young men to put themselves forward for the job before the deadline next month.

Hopefuls must be male, reached the age of 21 by January 1 and not have 31 on or prior to September 1.

They must be unmarried or never been married, and escorts need to have been born in Ireland or have Irish ancestry.

Applicants need to be available for Selection events and if selected, be available for the International Festival events from August 15 to 21 in Tralee, with the event broadcast live on RTE on August 19 and 20.

Each candidate will also be charged an application fee and those who are chosen will have to raise sponsorship of €1,500.
