Kilkenny (Irish: Cill Chainnigh) is the county seat of County Kilkenny, Ireland. The city proper has a population of 8,591 whilst the figure, including environs, is 20,735; it is Ireland's smallest city both by area and population. Kilkenny is located on the River Nore is famed for its history and nightlife.

Kilkenny was granted a Royal Charter in 1609 by King James I; its status as a city was most recently recognised by Section 10(7) of the Local Government Act 2001, although it does not have the administrative privileges of other cities in the Republic of Ireland and is administered by a borough council.

Kilkenny is the only city in the Republic of Ireland that is not tidal. Kilkenny is also the only city in the republic that has neither an institute of technology nor university; although National University of Ireland, Maynooth maintains an outreach center in the city at St. Kierans College.
