Freeview channel numbers for viewers in Northern Ireland.
The Freeview channel list on your TV may vary depending on your location and the type of device you’re using. Older Freeview receivers won’t pick up all channels. Services may also change with little or no notice. This list will be updated every month.

| 🟢 | Green button live restart function (Freeview Play) Not available on all programmes. |
| ▶️ | Available live via the Freeview mobile app Individual programmes may be unavailable online. Requires co-installation of BBC iPlayer, ITVX, the Channel 4 App, My5 and U (formerly UKTV Play). |

If you have a new TV set, your channel list may differ from the one shown below. This is because many newer TVs now support Freely instead of Freeview. If ITV3 appears on channel 7 instead of 10, your TV uses the Freely channel numbering system. Visit the Freely channel list page.

Channel 780-799 Reserved for temporary services
Channel 800+ Receiver specific range & non-Freeview channels. Receiver-specific channel range. Channels will appear here if you can receive services from more than one transmitter or your receiver is unable to store a channel on its intended channel number. You may find Saorview (Republic of Ireland) TV channels stored in this area, as they are not part of Freeview.
N.B. This page will note the broadcast hours of the channel, if the broadcast hours on Freeview are less than the hours available on other platforms, i.e. channels where the full schedule is not available on Freeview.
