Newry (; ) is a city in Northern Ireland, from Belfast and from Dublin. It had a population of 29,946 in 2011.

Newry is at the entry to the " Gap of the North", close to the border with the Republic of Ireland. It grew as a market town and a garrison and became a port in 1742 when it was linked to Lough Neagh by the first summit-level canal built in Ireland or Great Britain. In 2002, as part of Queen Elizabeth's Golden Jubilee celebrations, Newry was granted city status along with Lisburn.
