Premiership Rugby Debuts Prtv Service

All Gallagher Premiership Rugby matches will now be available for viewers through the launch of the PRTV Live service.

The new channel will give supporters the chance to watch all matches not being broadcast on BT Sport or ITV, through a pilot from Round 18 on Friday, 25th February.

PRTV Live is streamed directly via the Premiership Rugby mobile app. The service is available outside the UK, but not in Canada, USA or Australia.

Viewers can purchase a Match Pass for a single fixture for £4.99 or pay £6.99 for a Round Pass.

Simon Massie-Taylor, Chief Executive Officer at Premiership Rugby, said, “PRTV Live signals another step in our journey to grow the game and make Gallagher Premiership Rugby accessible to as many rugby fans as possible. Together with our partners BT Sport and ITV, PRTV Live will give supporters across the country the freedom to watch every game live, at home, or on the go.

“Through this new platform, we want to create a deeper relationship with our current fans, who have asked us for this service, and make the game as accessible as possible to new supporters. Having every match available to watch live is a crucial step forward for us.

“With 10 million rugby fans in England, PRTV Live will allow us to showcase the best of Gallagher Premiership Rugby to the widest possible audience, expanding our reach into the households of millions of other rugby fans. Not only that, but it’ll mean London Irish fans who can’t make the round trip of almost 600 miles to watch their team play Newcastle Falcons at Kingston Park, can still see the game live!”
