About Us

The story behind Meanwhile in Ireland.

Meanwhile in Ireland is a celebration of all that is weird and wonderful about Ireland!

Welcome to Meanwhile in Ireland, one of Ireland’s most popular humour websites, where we specialise in bizarre news, entertainment, viral videos, and all things Irish craic.

Since our launch in 2014, we have grown a vibrant community of over 900,000 social media followers and attract hundreds of thousands of readers annually on MeanwhileinIreland.com.

We pride ourselves on not taking things too seriously, and our content reflects this ethos. Our mission is to entertain our readers with funny, inspiring, and engaging Irish content.

We are known for our dry Irish humour, satire, and sarcasm while also sharing Ireland’s unique culture and current affairs with the world.

Our team delivers authentic, firsthand articles, with all our writers being either native to Ireland or having spent significant time living here. Our commitment to quality has earned us nominations and recognition from prestigious award organisations in Ireland and the UK.

Please note that articles marked as ‘satire’ are spoof pieces meant purely for entertainment. They are not factual and are not intended to offend. We write them for the craic, with the aim of making people laugh, so we encourage you to take these with ‘a pinch of salt.’

Join us in celebrating Irish humour and culture, and enjoy the best of Meanwhile in Ireland!
