About Connemara Journal

Connemara Journal is an independent digital news publication covering Connemara, Galway, Ireland and the world. Our name honours The Connemara Journal, the free community newspaper that served Connemara for years, and we carry on its spirit of local, readable, trustworthy news, now with a national and international outlook.

What we cover

Breaking news from Ireland and around the world, politics, business and your money, sport (from GAA and League of Ireland to the Premier League and Formula 1), culture, health, science, technology and the stories that matter in the west of Ireland.

How we work

Every article is researched from named, reputable sources, such as official statements, court records, national broadcasters and established newspapers, and each story lists its sources at the end so readers can check them. We clearly label rumour, analysis and opinion. Read our Editorial Standards for the full detail, including how we use technology in our newsroom.

Who we are

Connemara Journal is published by the Connemara Journal Newsroom, based in the west of Ireland. The website is built and maintained by WattScribe.
