Launched online on 17 March 2008 during Seachtain na Gaeilge, it began publishing a glossy print edition in November of the same year.[2] Run on a voluntary basis, this full-colour monthly edition continued for over a year before Nós was printed as an entertainment supplement with Irish language weekly newspaper, Gaelscéal. In July 2013, Nós was relaunched with a new design and was circulated monthly, with extra content updated more frequently online.[3]
The magazine covers topics such as music, film, travel, design, activism and current affairs. It was launched by Tomaí Ó Conghaile, former assistant editor of Lá Nua and television and radio presenter with BBC NI, and relies on a large network of contributors throughout Ireland and abroad.
Nós has received a number of awards for its contemporary design and content, including Best Irish Language Website at the Irish Web Awards in 2009.[4] It was also the first and only Irish language publication to be nominated at the Irish Magazine Awards.[5]
In January 2015 Nós launched a new website, updated daily with new content and is now solely available online.
Articles in the magazine are normally written in the Irish language, although a number of articles have also appeared in Scottish Gaelic and Manx.
On 1 February 2018, the editorship of the magazine changed hands to Maitiú Ó Coimín. Conor Torbóid became editor in 2023.[6]
