Current RTÉ Player logo

The Irish public media outlet RTÉ offers an on-demand video service under the name RTÉ Player. The service offers RTÉ television programmes live and on demand, as well as player-only material and programming from other foreign broadcasters.

There are two variants of the player: one for audiences in the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland and the other for audiences across the world. The service offers access to programmes from 7 to 21 days after they have aired and offers news, current events, entertainment, sports, and local and foreign dramas. The RTÉ Player was introduced on April 21, 2009.

On September 2, 2011, RTÉ made the announcement that it will introduce "RTÉ Radio Player," a platform for its digital radio stations. Customers of Virgin Media Ireland (formerly UPC Ireland) have had access to RTÉ Player via their televisions from May 25, 2012. On July 8, 2016, the service was made accessible to all Sky Ireland customers.

A new HTML5 version of the RTÉ Player with material that is only available through the online player was unveiled in December 2018. The player also runs other channels like RTÉ Food and RTÉ Archives. Content from overseas broadcasters including CBS, ABC Australia, arte, Epix, Lionsgate Television, and Warner Brothers Television is also available through the on-demand service.
