RNZ National (Māori: Te Reo Irirangi o Aotearoa National), formerly Radio New Zealand National, and known until 2007 as National Radio, is a publicly funded non-commercial New Zealand English-language radio network operated by Radio New Zealand. It specialises in programmes dedicated to news, the arts, music, and New Zealand culture generally, including some material in the Māori language.

In 2013, RNZ National had a 10.3 per cent market share, the highest nationwide and up from 9.1 per cent in 2009. Market share peaked at 11.1 per cent in 2011, probably due to the station's coverage of the Christchurch earthquake. 493,000 people listen to RNZ National over the course of a week – the second-largest cumulative audience.[1]

Its sister station is RNZ Concert.
