The Radio-télévision belge de la Communauté française ("Belgian Radio-television of the French Community"), shortened to RTBF (branded as rtbf.be), is a public service broadcaster for the French-speaking Community of Belgium. Its counterpart in the Flemish Community is the Dutch-language VRT (Vlaamse Radio- en Televisieomroeporganisatie), and in the German-speaking Community it is BRF (Belgischer Rundfunk).
The RTBF operates five television channels (La Une, Tipik, La Trois, Arte Belgique and TipikVision) together with a number of radio channels, including La Première, RTBF Mix, VivaCité, Musiq'3, Classic 21, and Tipik.
The organisation's headquarters in Brussels, which is shared with VRT, is sometimes referred to colloquially as Reyers.[1][2][3] This comes from the name of the avenue where the RTBF/VRT's main building is located, the Boulevard Auguste Reyers/Auguste Reyerslaan.
