Kanal V online - Television live
Kanal V Live Stream
Kanal V is a local television channel in Antalya, Turkey's Mediterranean tourism city. It began on 20 December 1992 as Vip TV, founded by Erdal Öner, and has broadcast under several names since.
Vip TV, Kanal Vip, VTV, Kanal V
The channel's history is a record of reinvention: it worked as a music channel in the late 1990s, became Kanal Vip after being bought by the Kadıahmetoğulları family in the early 2000s, moved from Çallı to Dokuma, broadcast as VTV from 2005 and took its current name at the end of 2015.
Antalya and its districts
The schedule carries local news from Antalya and its districts, reports on the region's tourism economy, talk and magazine programmes, and coverage of city events. The channel presents itself as "Antalya's only television", a claim about local coverage rather than about market share.
Tourism as the beat
Antalya province receives more foreign visitors than any other part of Turkey outside Istanbul, and its economy runs on hotels, charter flights and the Russian and German markets. A local newsroom there covers arrivals figures, hotel occupancy and the seasonal labour that supports them as its main economic subject.
Satellite, cable and online
The channel broadcasts by satellite, on cable and online, which is how a city station in Turkey reaches both its own residents and the Antalya diaspora in Germany and Russia.
