Virgin Media has announced a major milestone in its fibre upgrade programme with over 550,000 fibre homes constructed, and on target to reach 1 million premises upgraded to fibre in 2026.
As part of Virgin Media’s commitment to building a smarter, faster, and more connected digital future, the company has also launched Ireland’s first 5 gigabit fibre broadband service, which is available to customers right now.
Tony Hanway, CEO of Virgin Media, said: “This fibre milestone reflects our continued investment in Ireland’s digital infrastructure. We are now more than halfway through our fibre upgrade programme but it’s about more than just broadband speed - it’s about empowering communities, supporting local economies, and laying the foundation for a truly digital Ireland. Our next-generation fibre network and the launch of our new 5 gigabit broadband delivers enhanced connectivity, greater competition and more choice for consumers.”
