New to DStv Premium customers across the continent is the launch of SuperSport Grandstand, which comes immediately after Blitz at the front of the line-up. Grandstand is hosted in studio on weekends and will guide viewers to the wide selection of sport on the World of Champions, cutting between live events and simultaneously directing viewers to the channel on which the best sporting action is available.
On DStv there is now up to 19 SuperSport channels in all, including a “Variety” channel offering. In addition, DStv’s new sports line-up also includes ESPN and ESPN 2, on channels 218 and 219.
The new strategy will more closely align channel names in across the continent and will indicate a clear destination for fans’ favourite sports.
The all-new channel line-up can be found HERE.
