Jake Carter and Karen Byrne have been revealed as the Lee Strand Best Dressed Celebrity Judges at the upcoming July Festival at Killarney Racecourse. From Monday 15 to Friday 19 Killarney Races will host an exciting five-day summer horse-racing festival. For many social racegoers the most competitive event of the week will take place off the track on Friday in the form of renowned The Lee Strand Best Dressed fashion event!
This year’s celebrity judges are Singer Jake Carter & Dancing with the Stars pro dancer Karen Byrne. The stylish and talented duo will be out an about, circulating the enclosures from early doors to find the best dressed contenders so organisers are encouraging patrons to come along early.

The finalists will then battle it out in style for the chance to be crowned the 2024 Lee Strand Best Dressed Lady and Gent at Killarney Races and they will take home the covetable prizes of a VIP trip for two to Paris and Milan respectively.

We love all the style and can’t wait to see everyone.”
