See also Sligo (disambiguation)

Sligo (Irish: Sligeach) is the county town of County Sligo in the Republic of Ireland. Sligo is not a city, although there is a campaign to incorporate it as such. By Irish standards, it is a large town in the west of Ireland, however, it is mistakenly thought of, and intentionally promoted as a city. The town is a borough and has a charter and mayor. It is the second biggest urban area in Connacht (after Galway).
