Calling all farmers (and their friends)

If you or someone you know is up for a bit of craic, loves what they do, and isn’t afraid of the camera, we’d love to hear from you! We welcome farmers of all ages, backgrounds, and counties who are ready to represent Irish farming with pride (and maybe show off a few muscles too!).

The Irish Farmer’s Calendar

The Irish Farmer’s Calendar is a lighthearted, often humorous wall calendar featuring photos of Irish farmers—usually shirtless or in playful poses—set against scenic rural backdrops. It started as a fundraising initiative and has become a cult favorite in Ireland and internationally.

The calendar gained media attention both in Ireland and abroad, leading to viral moments and features on shows like "The Late Late Show". Over the years, it’s become something of an annual tradition, with fans eagerly awaiting each new edition.

To express your interest or nominate a friend, simply send a DM to @irishfarmerscalendar on Instagram or email irishfarmercalendar@gmail.com to request an application form.. Applicants must be over 18 and comfortable in front of the camera.

So go on – trade the overalls for the spotlight. This could be your year to shine!
