Ireland

Fannishly, Ireland is typically viewed as the whole island, both Eire and Northern Ireland. Irish Fandom in its ordinary sense includes all fans living there.

Activity is concentrated in Dublin, which hosts the Irish National convention Octocon and hosted Dublin 2019 Worldcon, and Belfast, with Titancon, and formerly, MeCons.

Fanhistorically, Irish Fandom means Wheels of IF in Belfast and the fans who gravitated around them.

Following the tradition of the Wheels of IF, Fancyclopedia 3’s Northern Ireland pages are categorised 'ireland', not 'uk', for social, not political, reasons.
