    About

    TNT Sports is a British pay television channel brand that brings live sports to audiences across the UK and Ireland. Launched on 1 August 2013 as BT Sport, it rebranded to TNT Sports on 18 July 2023 following a joint venture between BT Group and Warner Bros. Discovery. The brand covers a wide range of sports, including Premier League football, UEFA Champions League, rugby, boxing, and motorsports. Its headquarters moved from Here East in London's Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park to the Warner Bros. Discovery complex in Chiswick Business Park in July 2023.

    The network was born from BT Group's acquisition of Premier League broadcasting rights and the operations of ESPN UK, which became TNT Sports 4. The joint venture with Warner Bros. Discovery, announced in May 2022 and approved two months later, merged BT Sport with Eurosport UK. On 28 February 2025, Eurosport UK was fully absorbed into TNT Sports, consolidating the brand's position in the market. Available on EE TV, Sky, and Virgin Media in the UK, and Sky and Vodafone TV in Ireland, TNT Sports reaches millions of households.

    With a mix of live events, studio analysis, and original programming, TNT Sports competes with Sky Sports and other broadcasters. Its tone is energetic and fan-focused, aiming to deliver comprehensive coverage of major sporting events. The brand has secured rights to key competitions like the Premier League, Champions League, and Premiership Rugby, making it a significant player in British sports broadcasting.
