List of channels on Sky (United Kingdom and Ireland)
(Redirected from List of channels on Sky (United Kingdom & Ireland))
Sky is a major telecommunications and media company operating in the United Kingdom and Ireland, known primarily for its satellite television service, Sky TV. Since its launch in 1989, it has played a key role in the development of multichannel TV in the region. Sky provides access to a broad selection of channels, including sports, films, and entertainment, many of which are exclusive to the platform. Alongside television, it also offers broadband and phone services. The company is owned by the American media conglomerate Comcast.
Devices & receivers
Sky Glass
Sky Glass is a streaming-based television service that integrates Sky's content and interface directly into a 4K HDR smart TV. Designed to function without a satellite dish or set-top box, Sky Glass provides access to live TV, on-demand content, and third-party streaming apps such as Netflix, Disney+, and Apple TV+. It features built-in voice control, personalised recommendations, and a playlist function in place of traditional recordings, allowing viewers to curate content to watch at their convenience. The service is marketed with an emphasis on design and environmental sustainability and is available in both the United Kingdom and Ireland.
Sky Stream
Sky Stream delivers Sky's TV offering over a broadband connection via a compact device known as the Sky Stream puck. This device connects to any television through HDMI, making it a more flexible option than traditional satellite-based systems. Like Sky Glass, it supports live TV, catch-up, and integration with streaming apps, along with voice search functionality and user-tailored recommendations. Sky Stream is aimed at customers who want a simpler setup without committing to a satellite installation. It is currently available in the UK and Ireland and represents Sky’s broader shift toward internet-delivered services.
Sky Q
Sky Q is Sky’s hybrid satellite and internet-enabled platform that preceded its fully streaming-based services. It supports a combination of live broadcasts, recordings, and on-demand content. Key features include the ability to record multiple channels simultaneously, up to 500 hours of storage, and compatibility with Sky Q Mini boxes for multiroom viewing. It also supports 4K UHD and HDR, alongside voice search and content suggestions. While newer products like Sky Glass and Sky Stream reflect Sky’s future direction, Sky Q continues to be widely used, with Sky confirming satellite service will remain available at least until 2029 in the UK and Ireland.
Sky+HD discontinuation
Sky stopped offering Sky+HD satellite receivers to new customers in 2016, replacing them with Sky Q as the standard platform. While existing customers could continue using Sky+HD, support has been gradually reduced.
By 2023, Sky removed interactive services like the red button and account management features. In 2024, Sky also ended standard definition (SD) broadcasts for some channels, further limiting older boxes. As of 2025, Sky+HD still functions for basic viewing and recording, but lacks access to new features and is no longer actively supported. As a result, this channel list may not accurately reflect the channels available on Sky+HD.

Notes
The channel list corresponds to the electronic programme guide for residential customers with all available subscriptions, including Sky UHD, Sky HD, Sky Sports, Sky Cinema and Sky Kids packs. Customers without all subscription packs may notice some UHD, HD, and SD channels swapping numbers. for example, customers without the Sky HD pack in Ireland would see GOLD HD on channel 810 instead of 340. Similarly, without the SD pack, customers will see Sky Showcase SD on channel 106, while Sky Showcase HD appears on channel 806. Detailed information can be found in the Additional information page.
Time shift channels are broadcast 1 hour later than the main HD/SD channel (unless stated). They are available in SD only, with the same subscription package and in the same region(s) as the main SD channel, unless stated.
