ENTERTAINMENT AND MUSIC PROGRAMMING

Home of The Late Late Show RTE Entertainment and Music brings us the biggest and brightest shows for a broad audience. Our contemporary large scale commissions like Dancing With The Stars and Ireland's Fittest Family on RTE One have been important cornerstones of the RTE One schedule.  We are continually striving to deliver engaging, relevant and entertaining content for our core audience who watch our output in huge numbers, while looking to attract new, younger viewers, particularly in the 25 - 44 year old age groups.

While talent shows, chat shows and one off events are central to RTÉ One Entertainment, we are always looking for fresh programming and to create and develop indigenous formats and ideas.

Entertainment and music on RTÉ2 needs to be about contemporary, brave, relevant and exciting propositions aimed squarely at the very discerning younger audiences. The RTÉ Entertainment and Music Department advertises specific call outs to the sector for exciting content for RTÉ2 based on schedule demand.

Please note RTÉ One and RTÉ2 will still consider single factual and pop docs for contestable slots on a rolling basis.
