Overview

• La 2 Cat goes live on October 13 on the La 2 frequency in Catalonia and streams on RTVE Play for on‑demand and live viewing.
• Director Oriol Nolis targets roughly 60–70% Catalan‑language programming by the end of 2025.
• RTVE’s board approved the project in March with only the PP abstaining, providing formal backing without recorded opposition.
• An €11 million budget is cited for 2026, with longer‑term funding, growth and Sant Cugat production capacity yet to be defined.
• The plan emphasizes collaborations and format exchanges with Catalan outlets, avoids costly reality franchises, and debuts a female‑led daytime slate featuring Gemma Nierga, Cristina Villanueva and Danae Boronat.
