Streaming services have changed the way we watch TV and movies. From Netflix, to Neon, TVNZ to Disney+ and all the others in between, now there is a new service to add to your list.
From 6am on Wednesday, August 23, Sky’s brand new free-to-air channel Sky Open will be available for everyone to enjoy.
Replacing Prime, the channel will include a massive range of content including locally-produced shows from Sky Originals NZ, news, exclusive Sky Sport coverage, documentaries and entertainment.
And just in case that doesn’t tick enough of your boxes, it will even be home to Sky’s free-to-air coverage for the Rugby World Cup 2023 so that you can support the All Blacks from the comfort of your very own couch.
Available to be accessed on Sky channel 4 and Freeview channel 15, the new service is something the media giant hopes will help them continue to deliver “superb content” to Kiwis in “ways that work for them”.
