Overview

• The channel will broadcast entirely in Catalan with live morning and afternoon blocks and new formats alongside established RTVE Catalunya shows such as Cafè d’idees and L’Altaveu.
• Journalist Oriol Nolis has been appointed director of the new service.
• Replacing La 2’s usual feed in Catalonia means some Spanish‑language La 2 programs carried elsewhere in Spain will not air in the region.
• RTVE frames the move as a tool to boost Catalan usage, pointing to official data that about 33% of residents use the language habitually.
• The rollout implements a political agreement between PSOE and Junts after a planned Diada debut was delayed, and it has renewed a branding dispute with 3Cat over the 2Cat name.
