New Zealand’s indigenous media organisation, Whakaata Māori, screens programming that informs, educates and entertains.

Whakaata Māori promotes, revitalises and normalises the Māori language. Many of the programmes on the channel are bilingual, in both Māori and English, the majority are subtitled and there is something for everyone to enjoy.

Available on Freeview in all the ways: tune in through a UHF aerial, a satellite dish, or get it on the Freeview Streaming TV app.

Channel update on Thu 6 Nov 2025: Whakaata Māori has been available in HD via UHF for many years and is now broadcasting in HD on Freeview's satellite TV service too! If your TV or satellite box hasn't auto-updated to Whakaata Māori in HD and is missing this and other channels, please retune.
