Africa’s biggest sporting spectacle, the 2015 Africa Cup of Nations (Afcon) is coming to DStv.
From the 17th of January until the 8th of February, all Compact, Compact Plus package subscribers will get special access to an Afcon-dedicated channel, SuperSport 5 (SS5). Furthermore, SS9 East Africa will now also be available on the Family bouquet, further making the tournament available to more subscribers. The channels will only be available on the bouquets for the duration of the Afcon tournament.
The activation of the channels on the lower tier bouquets forms part of MultiChoice’s continued efforts to give subscribers access to our exciting range of entertainment content via our different technological platforms while putting a spotlight on the abundance of sports talent on the continent.
DStv Premium and Compact Plus subscribers will also have access to view all 32 matches from the tournament in both HD and SD across three other SuperSport channels: SS7 which will act as the overflow channel for SS5 at the playoff stage where matches will kick off simultaneously, SuperSport Select and Maximo (where available).
“Afcon is Africa’s biggest football event and we are delighted to offer it to our subscribers on our multiple channels and platforms,” said Peter Fauel, General Manager MultiChoice Tanzania. “The channel that has been dedicated to Afcon will bring our subscribers closer to the soccer action and convey the excitement of the Afcon taking place in Equatorial Guinea.”
The live Afcon coverage will feature expert analysis from some of the most recognisable faces in the football industry like Ghanaian-born, former France football star Marcel Desailly, former South African national team player Neil Tovey, Ghanaian former international player Samuel Kuffour and the South Africa’s former striker, Benni McCarthy.
To add to the Afcon excitement, DStv and SuperSport have launched the #AfricaShowYourLove campaign to encourage subscribers to show their support for their favourite teams by uploading pictures of themselves dressed up in their football fan regalia onto the DStv Facebook page to win great prizes.
SS5 channel 205 will go live on Compact and Compact Plus from 17 January at 14: 00 CAT and will close on until 09 February at 10:00 CAT.
