The Mary from Dungloe International Arts Festival has been held annually for the past 55 years in the town of Dungloe and centres around the pageant which finds representatives (affectionately dubbed ‘Mary’) who best embodies the spirit of the festival, and who'll be an inspiring ambassador for the county of Donegal.
She is named ‘Mary from Dungloe’ for a 12-month period and acts as an official ambassador for the festival, the community and the county; promoting the essence of Irish pride. Irish emigrant communities from around the globe take part in the festival by nominating a candidate from their city to represent them at the international pageant in Donegal.
