DStv announces new packages, including one dedicated to sports
DStv will launch five new South African packages on September 17, 2026, priced from R99 to R799 a month, including dedicated Sports and Movies & Series tiers.
MultiChoice, a subsidiary of Canal+, recently unveiled a revamped lineup of DStv streaming packages in South Africa, set to commence on September 17, 2026. The changes were announced by Willington Ngwepe, CEO of MultiChoice (Pty) Ltd, during a media briefing held at MultiChoice City in Randburg. The new five-tier packages include Starter, Select, Sports, Movies & Series, and Premium.
The announcement comes in response to shifting customer needs and viewing habits, aiming to provide a more tailored selection for subscribers while expanding the company's subscriber base. Ngwepe emphasized the new packages' focus on giving customers greater choice and better value, with each tier catering to specific viewing preferences.
Notably, a dedicated sports package is among the most significant additions, offering over 115 channels, including 17 dedicated sports channels. The Sports package will appeal to those who prioritize sports content over an all-encompassing entertainment package. On the other hand, MultiChoice is introducing a dedicated Movies & Series package for customers who primarily seek access to movies and television series.
The Premium package, priced at R799 per month, remains as the top-tier offering, providing exclusive access to exclusive sports content, including Springbok and international rugby, Formula 1, golf, and tennis.
