The further development this year of our existing collaborative partnership with RTÉ will enable audiences across the country and around the world to experience, enjoy and be enriched by live performances safely and free-to-view across RTÉ’s extensive online culture platform and on RTÉ lyric FM. This year of all years this is a really strong example of RTÉ truly supporting the arts.”
