SVT Play is the video-on-demand streaming service from Swedish national public broadcaster Sveriges Television. As such, it offers a wide selection of Swedish and international shows, movies, and sports events. 

SVT is funded by a public service tax paid by Swedish residents. e SVT Play is therefore free to access and is ad-free. No registration is necessary to watch SVT content, although you can register to save your favorite shows and viewing history.
