e.tv will be launching four new channels on Platco Digital’s Openview HD Platform in October.
e.tv is turning 15 in October and to celebrate we’re launching four additional channels - a local content channel, a kiddies channel, a movie channel and an African channel focusing on Pan-African programming.
Since launching in October 1998, we’ve grown steadily to establish our position as the most watched commercial free-to-air English broadcaster in the country. And we’re about to get even bigger!
“These new channels will allow us to showcase more diversity and our ability to appeal across various demographics of our society,” says e.tv Group Head of Channels, Monde Twala.
e.tv will also be including its channels on the free-to-air Digital Terrestrial Television (DTT) platform when it launches. e.tv and Sentech, the national signal distributor, recently signed a Memorandum of Understanding regarding the distribution of e.tv channels on the DTT platform.
Further details about e.tv’s new channels will be revealed throughout September.
