TNT Sports is jointly owned by BT Group and Warner Bros. Discovery through a sports broadcasting joint venture that operates the TNT Sports channels in the UK and Ireland.

Who owns TNT Sports?

  • TNT Sports (the rebranded BT Sport) in the UK and Ireland is controlled by a joint venture between BT Group and Warner Bros. Discovery, combining BT’s former BT Sport operations with Discovery/Eurosport assets.
  • The UK TV channels and branding sit within this JV structure, with production based at Warner Bros. Discovery’s facilities in London.

TNT Sports brand in the US vs UK

  • In the United States, “TNT Sports” is a sports division and brand of Warner Bros. Discovery that handles sports coverage on TNT, TBS, truTV, and related digital properties.
  • In the UK and Ireland, the TNT Sports name is used under the BT–Warner Bros. Discovery joint venture that replaced the BT Sport branding in 2023.

Recent corporate context

  • BT Sport rebranded to TNT Sports in July 2023 as part of the integration of BT’s sports business with Warner Bros. Discovery’s Eurosport and wider European sports operations.
  • In 2025–2026, Warner Bros. Discovery announced plans to split into two separate companies, with the TNT Sports U.S. operation expected to sit inside a “Global Networks” entity, but ownership of TNT SPORTS channels in the UK remains tied to the BT–WBD joint venture unless future changes are completed.
