Kilglass or Kilglas (Irish: Cill Ghlas) is a village in County Sligo, Ireland. The wider Parish of Kilglass includes, as well as the village itself, the nearby town of Enniscrone.
Kilglass has a Catholic church — the Church of the Holy Family — and a primary school, Kilglass National School. The Jesus and Mary Secondary School is 4 km away in Enniscrone town. It also has a Protestant church.
Although Cill Ghlas is the official Irish-language version of the name Kilglass today, it is believed that the most likely derivation is that it is a corruption of Cill Molaise (St Molash's church).
Kilglass is served by Bus Éireann route 458 (Sligo-Enniscrone-Ballina).
