Tourism Ireland’s Programming Fund

Applications are open for the second round of Tourism Ireland's  International Programming Ireland Fund 2025. Now in its fifth year, the funding scheme is designed to stimulate and support high-quality TV projects with the potential to positively showcase the island of Ireland to an international TV audience. 

Experienced independent production companies (domestic, international or a co-production partnership) with a demonstrable track record in producing high-quality programming for TV broadcasters outside the island of Ireland are invited to apply for funding.

Funding is awarded on a sliding scale to projects that fulfil the scheme criteria, with a maximum investment of up to €200,000 available (no more than 50% of the global budget for the project).  

Guidelines for the 2025 application process and a sample application form for reference can be viewed at the links below.
