VIRGIN MEDIA WILL broadcast one Uefa Champions League match live each week on a free-to-air basis for the next three seasons.
The broadcaster confirmed today that it will have the first pick of Wednesday fixtures in Ireland until the end of the 2023/2024 season.
Virgin have also obtained full Irish rights for the Europa League, the new Europa Conference League — where Shamrock Rovers, Bohemians and Dundalk are all still in the hunt for a place in the group stages — and the Uefa Super Cup.
Today’s announcement completes the full Champions League rights picture for Irish fans.
RTÉ had previously confirmed that they will have a Tuesday fixture every week for the next three seasons, as well as rights to the Champions League final.
Market newcomer LiveSports will also show every game on a free-to-air basis in Ireland with coverage available through their iOS and Android apps.
BT Sport still hold the subscription rights package, with all games available to their Irish customers.
