The show was born early in February 2002 with seventeen schools enrolled to take part in the competition.  Since then the competition has grown from strength to strength with over fifty schools taking part in its forth year. Currently in the competitions fifth year hundreds of students across the country will battle it out for a place in the grand final.

A celebrity judging panel decides who will scoop the £5000 prize fund. Past winners have included acts as Frank Sinatra, Tina Turner, Lionel Ritchie, Anastacia, Bob Dylan Aretha Franklyn, Etta James and Shania Twain. The standard has been excellent, and this year is no different.   

Along with the growing demand for the competition our resources are growing too adding to our high standards of efficiency and professionalism. Every day we are learning more and more and use this to our advantage.  We are gradually expanding the competition every year and would be delighted to have your school involved.

In 2003/04 the word had spread about the Ulster competition so we started to expand into the province of Leinster.  This is a separate competition with its own Grand Final and prize fund.  Now in our third year we have many more schools taking part. A celebrity judging panel decides who will scoop the €1500 prize fund.


We are a Promotions company based on the North Antrim Coast of Northern Ireland.  As well as promoting 'Stars in Yer Eyes' among the schools we also have a band ourselves who provide entertainment for numerous weddings and corporate functions.  Over the last eight years we have built up a great relationship with Hotel's, Theatres and many many fantastic artists.  On top of all this we also provide entertainment at some of the country's biggest festivals and fairs.  Each year we have more and more successful events under our belt with estimated figures attending of 80,000 to 100,000 we are the fastest growing entertainment company in Ulster.


“Over the last 5 years the Stars in Yer Eyes Show has been generously sponsored by our great friends from Coca Cola who have given us branding under Fanta and also more recently, due to the continuing health drive in our schools, Deep River Rock water.

 

Having helped and supported us in nurturing this initiative into what it has become today, an award winning national competition, it has been decided that we will no longer be sponsored by Coca Cola, in the view that they will go on to support another smaller community project the same way they supported us.

 

I would like to thank Maire and Gillian and all the staff from Coca Cola and of course, the wonderful events team for all their help, assistance and support over the last 5 years. “
