Sydney St Patrick’s Day Bachelor of the Year 2009

The Sydney St Patrick’s Day Bachelor of the Year was created in 2004 to help raise the all important funds for the St Patrick’s Day Parade & Family Day. Since then, the Bachelor of the Year has become an event in its own right and is now a major fundraiser for the Sydney St Patrick’s Day Parade & Family Day. Due to this enormous success it has become a highlight on the Irish event calendar.

The Sydney St Patrick’s Day Bachelor of the Year is a gala evening showcasing the best of Irish and Irish Australian male talent! Approximately twelve ‘bachelors’ are interviewed on stage and delight and excite their audience with their charm and talents. 

The 2009 Sydney St Patrick’s Day Bachelor of the Year was held on Saturday 28th February at the Paddington Town Hall. Congratulations to Michelle Murphy and Shelley Ryan for organising a fantastic evening.

In case you weren't there, Michael Nissen has penned a poem that brilliantly captures the evenings excitement. Thank you Michael, for allowing us to publish the poem here. The Irish Bachelor Gig.

And the 2009 Bachelor is .... Will McCauley.

Congratulations Will, from everyone involved with the 2009 Bachelors event.
