1. The Luxembourg TV landscape: what you need to know
Luxembourg is a genuinely multilingual country in television terms: the same family can watch RTL Télé Lëtzebuerg in Luxembourgish, TF1 in French, ARD in German and the Premier League in English — all through a single TV subscription. Four operators offer residential TV services: POST Luxembourg (POP TV), Tango (Proximus subsidiary), Orange Luxembourg and Eltrona. In 2026, standard packages range from around 100 to 130 channels.
Unlike France or Belgium, Luxembourg has no national public broadcaster in the strict sense. RTL Télé Lëtzebuerg is a private channel (wholly owned by RTL Group, Bertelsmann) that fulfils this role under a contract with the Luxembourg government. There is no equivalent of France Télévisions or RTBF in the Grand Duchy.
2. Luxembourgish channels
RTL Télé Lëtzebuerg — the national channel
RTL Télé Lëtzebuerg is the country’s reference generalist channel. The RTL Hei Elei programme was created on 21 October 1991 on the Tele Lëtzebuerg channel, before being renamed RTL Télé Lëtzebuerg in 1995. The channel broadcasts in Luxembourgish: the main evening news (with up to 70% audience share in the 7–8 pm slot), society programmes, cultural magazines and national sporting events. It does not acquire films or foreign series — its schedule is 100% local production. Also accessible via RTL Play, the group’s streaming platform.
RTL Zwee — entertainment
RTL Zwee (formerly Den 2. RTL) is RTL Luxembourg’s second channel, launched in 2004. It offers entertainment-oriented programming: series, films, game shows, reality TV and repeats. Available on all Luxembourg TV platforms.
Chamber TV and Luxe.TV
Chamber TV broadcasts live plenary sessions of the Luxembourg Parliament. Luxe.TV, born in Luxembourg, is a thematic channel dedicated to luxury and the art of living, now broadcast in around forty countries.
RTL Télé Lëtzebuerg, RTL Zwee and Chamber TV are available with all Luxembourg TV operators. These are the three channels every Luxembourg subscriber receives in their base package, regardless of operator.
3. French and French-Belgian channels
French is one of Luxembourg’s administrative languages and the everyday language for a large part of the population and expats. French channels are the most numerous in Luxembourg TV packages and are almost all included in base packages at no extra cost. The standard package generally includes: TF1, France 2, France 3, Canal+ (free-to-air window), France 4, France 5, M6, Arte, C8, W9, TMC, TFX, 6ter, Gulli, Franceinfo and rolling news channels such as BFMTV, CNews, LCI.
Belgian French-language channels are also typically included: La Une, Tipik, La Trois (RTBF public channels) and RTL Belgium group channels RTL-TVI, Club RTL, Plug RTL.
4. German and German-language channels
German is Luxembourg’s third official language. Luxembourg operators offer a particularly rich German catalogue — far more than what you find in France or Belgium. All operators include in their standard package: Das Erste (ARD), ZDF, ZDFneo, 3sat, Arte DE (German version of Arte), Kika (ARD/ZDF children’s channel), Phoenix (news and documentaries), and commercial channels RTL Television, RTL Zwei, Vox, ProSieben, Sat.1, Kabel Eins, n-tv. Tango and POST also include Sport1 in their base package.

If you are German-speaking and German-language content is a priority — especially the Bundesliga or Sky series — Eltrona is the best-equipped operator in Luxembourg, with its exclusive Sky packages. For the free ARD/ZDF/ProSieben catalogue, all operators are comparable.
5. Sports channels in Luxembourg

DAZN 1, DAZN 2 and DAZN 3 (formerly Eleven Sports 1, 2 and 3) are included in base packages or as the first sports option at most operators — covering Serie A, La Liga, Ligue 1, the Championship and many other competitions.
