AMI ADVENT CALENDAR

The final and 18th pageant takes place on Sunday 18 March 2012 at the Olympia Theatre Dublin, where Miss Mangina Jones will be toppled off her throne, and the last Banríon na hÉireann will be crowned to set sail across the nation.

This Christmas Give the Gift of the Last Gay Christmas for Christmas,
and help AMI raise money for Irish HIV/AIDS organisations

Alternative Miss Ireland is a non-profit collective dedicated to raising funds for Irish HIV/AIDS organisations — over €335,000 to date!

HAVE YOUR DAY AND YOUR SAY

Every year, AMI produces a full colour, beautifully designed, collectable commemorative Calendar for the year ahead — it runs March to March (Gay Christmas to Gay Christmas), and is available for purchase at the Olympia Theatre on the night of the Pageant.

This year AMI is offering every single day in the 13-Month AMI Calendar for purchase, all the way from 18 March 2012 to 31 March 2013.

You get up to a total of 280 characters per day, and you can say whatever you want to say. It could be a birthday message, a memory of a love lost, a message to Panti, a secret code, or a tranny rant.

Twice as long as a Tweet, but lasts so much longer. Once a date is sold, it will be gone forever. You can even buy a whole week, or spread yourself throughout the year and buy a day per month — so many ways to spread your love (or whatever it is that you are spreading).

Don’t miss out on this once-in-a-tranny-lifetime opportunity! €20 per day.

BOX AUCTIONS — DONATE AND WIN!

Help Support Irish HIV/AIDS organisations

The three most spectacular boxes in the Olympia Theatre are being made available through public competition. Imagine being perched on the ornate prow of a Victorian ship – you can be the Kate Winslets to our Titrannic. Swigging some complementary AMI bubbly, from these boxes you get up close to Panti’s realness. Just watch out if she swings that ass of hers, it’s the tip of an iceberg in 4-D.

MISS DONOR BOX

By making a donation to AMI of €10 or more via the AMI website, you are automatically entered in a raffle to win a BOX FOR FOUR at the 2012 Pageant. Just click on the DONATE rosette to the right (or click here). The winner will be plucked from a wig box on 10 March 2012.

This is by far the most glamourous and coveted box in the Olympia. It suits EIGHT PEOPLE, with the grandest view of the Aspiring Queen Cailíns, and you can look the judges in the yellow of their eyes across the sea of punters below. An exciting opportunity to watch the pageant go out in style, this box requires that you seriously dress up! The reserve bid for this Queen of Boxes is €1,000.

The auction is now open, and bidding closes 18 February 2012. So go on, get bidding!

QUEENS OF THE UNDERWORLD — RISE UP ON YOUR HEELS DEBUTANTES OF DESPAIR — COME RULE IRELAND'S AFTERLIFE TAKE THE THRONE FROM MISS MANGINA JONES
AS THE LAST BANRÍON na hÉIREANN IN THE JUBILEE YEAR!

_____________

Alternative Miss Ireland, the beauty pageant with no boundaries of beauty, gender, creativity or taste, is a big girl now. AMI XVIII 2012 will be the Silver Jubilee of her very first crowning. This Jubilee will also be her debutante celebration — her 18th and final pageant. As the last Banríon na hÉireann sets forth into the world in her final "Miss" incarnation — a full blown Mná — she will leave behind her a wake of proud mothers, a tear in Panti's eye, and a flotilla of Queen Cailíns.

Under Panti's ever present cross-dressed eyes, AMI XVIII 2012 will be a competitive pageant as always. With a cohort of aspiring Queen Cailíns in thematic rounds of Daywear, Swimwear and Eveningwear, being judged on Poise, Personality, Originality and, ultimately, Insanity. All hoping to win that final title and Crown. And yet, of course, as the final AMI, this will be like no other pageant that has gone before.
