Ready to mingle? Single Kildare men over 30 needed for RTE dating show

First Dates Ireland matchmakers have opened applications for the newest season of the hit RTE show.

This year, the First Dates Ireland matchmakers are particularly interested in finding single men in their 30s.

So, if you know someone who could do with a nudge, send them to www.cococontent.ie/firstdates for more information.

To be in with a chance at love, or at least a really good dessert at the Gibson Hotel, applicants have to be 18 or over and, of course, be single.

People of all genders and sexual orientations are welcome and the matchmakers will be only too pleased to accept the challenge of finding your perfect match.

Don't forget, if you're a little camera shy, you can also apply to be a background diner.
