BBC Alba is to screen nightly live coverage and highlights throughout the Glasgow 2026 Commonwealth Games.
The Gaelic broadcaster will be the only place on the BBC where viewers can watch events after TNT Sports secured the rights to be the Games' live UK broadcast partner.
The subscription channel outbid the BBC, which had been the main partner and provided free-to-air coverage since 1954 for 18 Games in a row.
BBC Alba said details on its broadcast times and programming would be announced closer to the start of Glasgow 2026. The channel's Gaelic-language coverage will also be available on BBC iPlayer.
