SRF zwei

SRF zwei is the second television channel operated by Schweizer Radio und Fernsehen, the public broadcaster for the German-speaking part of Switzerland. While the channel is based in Switzerland, it is also available in parts of southern Germany through cable and satellite distribution. Its programming leans toward entertainment, with a strong emphasis on international films, series, and sports coverage. Documentaries and cultural magazine shows appear in the schedule as well, often focusing on Swiss and European topics. The channel also carries live broadcasts of major sporting events, including football and winter sports, which are frequently shared with the main channel SRF 1.

Viewers in Germany can access SRF zwei through various cable networks and satellite platforms, though availability depends on the local provider. The channel does not broadcast its own news bulletins; instead, it airs the main news program from SRF 1 at certain times. Online streaming of the channel is available via the SRF Play platform, which offers live feeds and a selection of on-demand content for a limited time after broadcast. TV guide listings for SRF zwei are published weekly by Swiss and German program magazines, as well as on the SRF website.
