'''''An Là''''' (''The Day'') is a [[Scottish Gaelic]]-language news programme broadcast on [[BBC Alba]] and produced by [[BBC News|BBC Naidheachdan]] (BBC News) and [[BBC Scotland]].
 
The programme, based at BBC Alba's newsroom in [[Inverness]], began at 8pm on 22 September 2008 and provides a 30-minute bulletin of Scottish, British and international news for Gaelic speakers seven days a week. The Sunday night review programme, composed of highlights from the week's bulletins as well as material from ''[[Eòrpa]]'', called ''[[Seachd Là]]'', began at 6.30pm on 28 September 2008.

==Broadcast history==
''An Là'' broadcasts from Studio G at the BBC Alba studio in [[Inverness]] alongside ''[[Seachd Là]] and An Là'' Sports (BBC Spòrs). ''An Là'' Weather (BBC Aimsir) comes from [[BBC Pacific Quay]] in [[Glasgow]].

''An Là'' is the first daily television news programme to be broadcast in Scots Gaelic since the axing of [[Grampian Television]]'s ''[[Telefios]]'' bulletins in 2000. When the show first aired, it was only presented by two presenters taking turns presenting daily. It is currently presented by the current team below.
  
''An Là'' was shortlisted in the Best Current Affairs category at the 2009 [[Celtic Media Festival]].
