Welcome

The Irish have contributed significantly to New Zealand society and, today, around 20% of New Zealanders have Irish ancestry.

This site has been created to highlight the historical and contemporary connections between New Zealand and Ireland. Additionally, a list of Irish migrants who came to New Zealand is being created to assist those researching their Irish heritage. The links between New Zealand and Ireland are extensive; enjoy your exploration of the Irish Kiwi experience at the links provided below.
