The Traitors Ireland will officially premiere on RTÉ One and RTÉ Player on Sunday, August 31. Siobhán McSweeney as host will charge into chaos, suspicion and stylish skulduggery.

Today sees the exclusive reveal of The Traitors Ireland promo and official key art, teasing shadows stirring in the dark, where loyalty is fragile, betrayal is currency and suspicion is inevitable.

Filmed at the banks of the Boyne in Slane Castle, this spine-tingling new adaptation of the global phenomenon brings suspicion, strategy and sabotage to Irish soil. A group of strangers arrive at the castle. Their mission: to win €50,000 without getting murdered or banished (in the game, of course). The twist? The Traitors walk amongst them, sowing doubt and deceit at every turn.

Expect conniving glances over banquet breakfasts, whispers in corridors and enough drama to make even the most loyal viewer question their instincts.

As tension rises and alliances crumble, viewers will be left asking: who’s lying, who’s loyal and who’s next?

As announced last week Kevin McGahern will delve into the behind the scenes in The Traitors Ireland Uncloaked. As soon as viewers have finished with their latest fix of The Traitors Ireland on RTÉ One and RTÉ Player, they’ll be able to join Kevin and celebrity guests and players from the game for all the best analysis and reaction to the latest betrayals, mind games and manipulations.

Uncloaked will take fans of The Traitors Ireland deeper into Slane Castle with dissection of the episodes and exclusive access to the banished and murdered players. This access all areas show will be available on RTÉ television, RTÉ Player and all podcast platforms.

Filmed in RTÉ Limerick, each episode will feature an exclusive interview with the banished or murdered player. With bonus unseen footage, some will learn the identity of the Traitors for the very first time!

The Traitors Ireland is coming; you won’t want to miss it.
