What kinds of Dubai TV shows that you can expect to see when you visit here.

There are global television programs that are available here but most of the locals including myself prefer to watch the regional programs via cable or satellite television.

When it comes to Dubai television, there are five main networks namely Abu Dhabi TV, Dubai TV station, Dubai One, City 7 TV, and the MBC or the Middle East Broadcasting Center.

Television in Dubai also comes with pay per view channels apart from the cable channels and the service is provided by E-vision which is a division of Etisalat.

You will be able to watch English, Canadian, and even Australian Dubai programs.

The local Dubai programs also cater to a wide audience from men to women to children and the cable stations in Dubai really offer much variety for Dubai television.

Here are some of the available channels when it comes to television in Dubai that you might encounter during your visit.

There is the Arab Woman Channel and it is actually the first channel that has been created to cater to the needs of Arab Women with programs that address the problems they face day in and day out.

During the day, the Dubai shows are that of fashion, cooking, and of course home decorating and the daily audience that tunes in is estimated to be at around 15 million.

If you are into sports, then you will love the Dubai Sports Channel.

It covers international sports as well as local sporting events but what makes it different is that it also provides television viewers access to particular sports and competitions that other forms of media neglect.

When it comes to Dubai television, this is a channel that owns the rights to the Dubai World Cup, the Dubai Open, and the Speedboat Racing World Championship.

We also have family oriented programs and these are offered by a channel referred to as Dubai TV . The Emirates Channel is the official channel for the UAE which covers everything from children’s programming to political programs. Some of the popular Dubai programs from this channel include Almazyooneh, Emirates in a Week, and Album.
           
When it comes to Dubai’s innovation and creativity, what you should see is the Sama Dubai Channel and it is broadcasted under the Dubai Media Company.

The Dubai shows available here focus on the economic, financial, touristic, and cultural developments of the country.

For news, you should watch the Al-Arabiya Channel but you must know Arabic in order to understand it as this channel has no subtitles for foreigners.

Al Aan TV is another channel that delivers news reports but this one is not purely a media outlet for factual information but also has a number of entertainment shows under it.

And then there is Libra TV which is our local lifestyle channel and Al Fajr TV which is focused on religion and the Qur’an. Happy viewing friend!
