Look at The following Apple documentation: https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/documentation/AVFoundation/Reference/AVQueuePlayer_Class/Reference/Reference.html

The basics of AVQueuePlayer are not much different than AVPlayer. You can initialize your player with a list of AVPlayerItems, and the continuous playback will be handled for you.

AVPlayerItem *item1 = [AVPlayerItem playerItemWithURL:[NSURL URLWithString:@"http://www.playeritemurl.com/item1.aac"]];
AVPlayerItem *item2 = [AVPlayerItem playerItemWithURL:[NSURL URLWithString:@"http://www.playeritemurl.com/item2.aac"]];
AVPlayerItem *item3 = [AVPlayerItem playerItemWithURL:[NSURL URLWithString:@"http://www.playeritemurl.com/item3.aac"]];
AVQueuePlayer *player = [[AVQueuePlayer alloc] initWithItems:@[item1, item2, item3]];

You can post a more specific question, if you have one, but the documentation should be fairly clear on how to get started.
