RTS 2 online television

RTS 2 is a Senegalese public television channel owned and operated by Radiodiffusion Télévision Sénégalaise (RTS), the country's state broadcaster. The channel was officially launched on November 28, 2025, following an announcement made on October 28, 2025, by RTS Director General Pape Alé Niang. Its headquarters are located at the former Maison de la RTS on 58 Boulevard de la République in Dakar, Senegal, opposite the Théâtre National Daniel Sorano. As a dedicated source for online television, RTS 2 developed as a specialized thematic channel emerging from the main RTS 1 public service, initially designed as a cultural and sports channel to complement Senegal's national television offerings.

The programming schedule allows viewers to watch live channel coverage of two primary content pillars: culture and sport. The cultural programming showcases the richness of Senegalese artistic expressions, including theatre, cinema, music, dance, literature, and visual arts. The channel also features programs on the history of Senegalese regions such as Fouta, presented by Halpulaar personality Farba Sally Seck, accompanied by traditional music. The sports programming includes national competitions, sports training coverage, athletic performances, and youth sporting events. The channel also serves as a platform for independent producers, especially those funded by the Fonds de promotion de l'industrie cinématographique et audiovisuelle (FOPICA). While specific current program titles and host names are not extensively documented beyond the general format, the channel has aired shows such as .sn, a weekly five-minute program providing tutorials to make information technology accessible for a wider population. Less recent programming has included series such as Tout le monde déteste Chris, Lost, La Belle Mère, and tourbillon de passion. The channel's management, led by Director General Pape Alé Niang, has positioned RTS 2 as an "espace vivant et dynamique" (living and dynamic space) dedicated to promoting Senegalese heritage and supporting youth talent.

For audiences seeking a reliable live stream of Senegalese cultural and sports content, RTS 2 is widely available as a free-to-air service via multiple satellite platforms across Africa, Europe, and North America. The channel broadcasts in HD format (720p resolution) with MPEG-4/H.264 video encoding.
