BR24 is a cross-platform news brand of German public broadcaster Bayerischer Rundfunk (BR) which is at the same time a news website, a 24/7 news radio station (until 30 June, 2021: B5 aktuell) and a television news programme (until June 30, 2021: Rundschau).

On May 3, 2021, Bayerischer Rundfunk announced that B5 aktuell would be renamed BR24 on July 1, 2021. "BR24" was added to the names of existing TV programmes. BR created a single brand for news.[1] When it began broadcasting on May 6, 1991, B5 aktuell was the first news station in German-language radio.[2]

Programming

Editors and technicians work in three shifts every day, with broadcasting beginning shortly before 6 a.m.[3][4] From midnight to 6 a.m., BR24 broadcasts ARD Info night produced by NDR Info. In March 2019, the station increased regional reporting from Bavaria, with accompanying programme changes, using the slogan "From Bavaria for Bavaria."[5]
