An Là (The Day) is a Scottish Gaelic-language news programme broadcast on the Gaelic-language channel, BBC Alba. The programme, based at BBC Alba's newsroom in Inverness, began at 8pm on Monday 22 September 2008 and provides a 30-minute bulletin of Scottish, British and international news for Gaelic speakers on weeknights. 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 Sunday 28 September 2008.

An Là is presented from Studio G at the BBC in Inverness, but outputted through Studio C Gallery in BBC Pacific Quay. Seachd Là, weather and the An Là sports news all come 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.

An Là was shortlisted in the Best Current Affairs category at the 2009 Celtic Media Festival.
