Oilgate or Oylegate (Irish: Bearna na hAille, meaning 'the gap in the cliff'), also known previously as Mullinagore (Irish: Maolán na nGabhar, meaning 'the grazing of the goats'), is a small village in Ireland, located about halfway between Wexford and Enniscorthy towns, in County Wexford.
The Irish name for Oylegate is Bearna na hAille, bearna meaning gap or gate and aill meaning cliff, getting its name from the place that the river Slaney breaks through the gap in the cliffs or rocks on its way to Wexford harbour.

The N11 national road, which runs between Dublin and Wexford, passes through the town, and is also part of European route E1.
The village is set to be bypassed in the near future as part of the N11/N25 Oilgate to Rosslare Harbour Scheme.
