History

In 2002, Andrea Roche Model Agency was awarded the rights to host the Miss Universe Ireland pageant and to send a Irish representative to compete at Miss Universe. This came after the Miss Ireland Organization lost its license from the Miss Universe Organization. Lisa O'Sullivan was crowned the first Miss Universe Ireland in 2002.
