Motley Magazine is an Irish student publication affiliated with University College Cork (UCC). Motley Magazine was originally set up in 2006 by the UCC Journalism and Media Society (now extinct, relaunched in 2018 as the UCC Journalism Society) until it became an official publication of the UCC media executive.[1] Motley Magazine is published monthly during college term since its founding, except for a one year break during the 2009/2010 academic year. It is a free publication, distributed throughout the University College Cork campus.[2]

The magazine won the “Best Magazine” award at the SMEDIA Awards in 2014, 2015, 2016, and 2017. Since it was created, the magazine has featured interviews and articles on people from the television, music and pop-culture industries, such as Troye Sivan,[3] Amanda Palmer,[4] and the Kaiser Chiefs.[5]
