Abu Dhabi TV is an Arabic television station launched in 2000, broadcasting from Abu Dhabi, in the UAE. Although not a 24 hour news network, Abu Dhabi TV is famous for its footage of the 2003 Iraq War. It competes with the two other 24 hour news stations Al Jazeera and Al-Arabiya in the Arab world.

Abu Dhabi TV is managed by the United Arab Emirates' largest media group, Emirates Media Inc. (EMI). EMI, the largest and most diversified media corporation in the Arab world, enjoys editorial and administrative independence while somewhat dependent on government funding through its attachment to the United Arab Emirates Ministry of Information and Culture.

Launched in 2000, Abu Dhabi TV presents news programs every three hours. It produces nearly 90% of the programs that it broadcasts, including political, current affairs, cultural, entertainment, drama, and documentary features. Abu Dhabi TV is broadcasted throughout the Middle East, North America, Europe, and will soon reach South America, and Australia.
