TVB Plus, formerly TVB J2 (Chinese: 無綫電視J2) is a Chinese-language free-to-air terrestrial television channel in Hong Kong. Owned by Television Broadcasts Limited (TVB) and first launched on 30 June 2008, the channel broadcasts programming aimed at youth and young adult audiences, as well as sports and financial journalism programming.

Most of its programming is presented in Cantonese, but occasionally there are programmes in other languages including Mandarin, Japanese and Korean. Most of the shows are broadcast on bilingual audio channels with Chinese subtitles. It began broadcasting in high definition on 21 January 2013.

In April 2024, it was announced that TVB J2 would be relaunched as TVB Plus beginning 22 April 2024, replacing both itself and TVB Finance, Sports & Information Channel. The new channel was promoted as offering entertainment, sports, financial, and interactive programming.[1][2]
