POETRY IRELAND REVIEW

Poetry Ireland Review is published three times annually. They welcome unsolicited submissions of poems, from Ireland and abroad, in Irish or English.

Organizers: 

POETRY IRELAND

Eligibility: 

Poets from anywhere in the world are eligible to submit poems. 

Length of Work: 

Send a maximum of six poems.

Prize: 

Poets will receive a copy of the issue in which their work appears plus a €40 payment for their contribution.

Entry Fee: 

This competition is absolutely free to enter. 

Rules: 

• Send a maximum of six poems.
• Keep a hard copy / digital copy of each submission.
• Poems should be original, and previously unpublished.
• Poems should be typed / printed, with a cover note containing contact details and publication credits, if any. (Previous publication credits are not necessary to be considered for publication in Poetry Ireland Review).
• If a poem continues over more than one page, clearly indicate stanza breaks between pages.
• Include an email address with your posted submission if you only need notification of the editor’s decision and don’t need your work returned. The paperwork will be recycled in due course. This is the preferred method of submission: posted with email included for the editor's response.
• If you don't have email, include a stamped self-addressed envelope or International Reply Coupons (for overseas submissions) with your posted submission, and indicate whether you'd like your work returned or only need notification of the Editor's decision.
• There are no restrictions on style or subject, but Poetry Ireland strongly dislikes poems advocating sexism or racism.
• Copyright for published work remains at all times with the author. Please note that poems published in PIR will also be added to our online archive of back issues.

Deadline:  

Submission of poems is open throughout the year.

How to Submit: 

All submissions should be addressed to the Editor, currently Vona Groarke.

Email: email submissions are not accepted, although an email address may be included with a posted submission – see above.
