More games, more sports, more choice – and now in more Canadian homes! TSN2, Canada’s newest 24-hour sports network, announced today that it is now available across Canada on national digital television provider Bell TV. TSN2 became available on the service just moments ago, giving Bell TV customers access to hundreds of live sports events.
Bell TV customers who subscribe to TSN will automatically receive TSN2 on channel 403. TSN2 will also be available in HD on channel 848.
“This is a big win for Canadian sports fans,” said Phil King, President, TSN. “We’ve heard loud and clear from our viewers that they want TSN2 available in their homes, and we are thrilled that Bell TV has joined our growing roster of distributors in giving Canadians more big games and more choice when it comes to watching live sporting events. There is simply no substitute for watching games live, and in just the first few weeks of TSN2’s launch, the network has given Canadians exclusive live coverage of major events that couldn’t be seen anywhere else. We’re thrilled that Bell TV subscribers will now be able to join us for all of the action.”
“Bell is thrilled to be among the first TV service providers to offer this great new channel to Canadians,” said Kevin Crull, President of Bell Residential Services. “With the addition of TSN2, Bell TV continues to be Canada’s leading digital TV provider, offering more HD channels than any other provider coast to coast.”
TSN2’s jam-packed line-up features 800+ hours of live major league sports action annually, with an average of one exclusive live event/game per day. Details on TSN2’s exclusive NHL, NBA and UEFA Champions League games will be announced in the next few days.
TSN2’s powerful live sports roster will also include curling, international hockey, golf, NASCAR Sprint Cup Series, NASCAR Nationwide Series, IndyCar Series, Grand Slam Tennis, boxing, mixed martial arts and NCAA football and basketball.
