'''Chorus''', officially '''Chorus Communication Limited''', was a [[communication]]s provider in [[Republic of Ireland|Ireland]] offering [[internet]], [[television]] and [[telephone]] services. It was owned by [[Liberty Global Europe]] and ultimately controlled by [[John C. Malone]]'s [[Liberty Media]].

Based in [[Limerick]] (and also with offices in Cork), it owned the [[cable television]] licenses for the cities of [[Cork (city)|Cork]] and [[Limerick]] as well as for most towns where cable networks existed. A small number of towns (notably Dungarvan) had locally run cable networks. It also held the [[MMDS]] licences for many towns across Ireland. The cable networks in the cities of [[Dublin]], [[Galway]] and [[Waterford]] and the MMDS services for towns in those counties as well Mayo were operated by [[NTL Ireland]].

In 2005 NTL sold its Irish operation to Liberty Global. As a result, cable and MMDS services across the country were temporarily branded "Chorus NTL" before ultimately rebranding to "[[UPC Ireland]]" (now Virgin Media Ireland) in 2010, bringing them into line with Liberty Global's TV offerings elsewhere in Europe.
