A1 Broadcasting extends Mezzo to two new markets

A1 Telekom Austria Group has renewed and extended the distribution of both Mezzo and Mezzo Live HD classical music channels on the A1 Pay-TV platforms in Central and Eastern Europe.

The offers were already available in the group’s markets in Croatia and Belarus, and will soon be provided on A1’s Pay-TV platforms in Bulgaria and North Macedonia.

Thema, a Canal+ company, also helped Mezzo to renew its technical partnership with A1 Group’s Broadcasting division which provides satellite services for Mezzo Live HD’s signal over the Asia-Pacific region including uplink and satellite capacity on the APSTAR-9 satellite.

Elena Petrova, Head of Broadcast & SAT Services, International Business, at A1 Telekom Austria Group, said: “We are excited about this new cooperation which strengthens our partnership and allows us to expand the Mezzo channels also in the two new markets within the A1 Group footprint. It helps accelerate the distribution not only in Europe but also in the Asia-Pacific area.”
