Gaelic games represent the cultural heart of Irish sport. Every summer and autumn, communities across all 32 counties rally behind their county colors in the pursuit of the All-Ireland Senior Hurling and Football championships.
In recent seasons, the broadcasting landscape for Gaelic games has grown contentious. Television coverage has become increasingly fragmented between free-to-air broadcasters (RTÉ and TG4) and the subscription streaming platform GAAGO, leaving many supporters frustrated by paywalls on marquee championship fixtures.
CelticStream provides complete, unified coverage of all Gaelic athletic competitions directly to your living room television.

The Sliotar Test: Why High Framerate Matters
Hurling enthusiasts know that tracking a sliotar struck from 80 meters out requires exceptional video clarity. Generic IPTV providers re-encode sports streams down to 25 frames per second to save server bandwidth, turning the sliotar into a disjointed white smudge.
CelticStream broadcasts all Gaelic games at 50fps and 60fps with dedicated high-bitrate encoding. The grass textures of Croke Park, Semple Stadium, and Páirc Uí Chaoimh remain sharp, and fast point-scoring plays are rendered with crystal clarity.
Frequently Asked Questions
Are GAAGO matches included on CelticStream?
Yes. CelticStream integrates official GAAGO broadcast hubs, allowing Irish households to watch exclusive paywalled championship fixtures on their main television screen without buying individual pay-per-view match passes.
Why is 60fps streaming important for hurling?
Hurling is the fastest field sport in the world, with the sliotar traveling at speeds exceeding 150 km/h. Standard 25fps streams blur the ball completely. Our 60fps feeds preserve fluid, crisp motion throughout.
Can I watch the Sunday Game live and on-demand?
Yes. RTÉ One and RTÉ2 broadcast live weekend matches and the evening Sunday Game highlights programme, all accessible with 7-day electronic programme guide catch-up.
