About Das Erste

Das Erste is the main national television channel of ARD, the association of Germany's regional public broadcasters, which jointly produce its programmes. It is known for the Tagesschau and Tagesthemen news programmes, the crime series Tatort, political talk shows, documentaries, quiz shows and major sports coverage including football and the Olympic Games.

The channel is funded mainly by the German broadcasting licence fee. Viewers can watch Das Erste live for free in the ARD Mediathek on the web and in the ARD apps without a subscription; some programmes, especially sport and licensed films, are available only to viewers in Germany.
