Sky Pacific to show live coverage of the Rio Olympics

Good news for those who cannot access Fiji One or FBC TV as there is confirmation today that Fiji One will also provide the live feed of the Rio Olympics to Sky Pacific.

People who do not get clear reception for any of the free to air TV channels in the country have been raising concern on whether there will be any coverage through the satellite Pay TV channel.

People contacted Fijivillage from parts of Vanua Levu,  Kadavu, Pacific Harbour, Nasinu, Naitasiri, Tailevu, Ra and Ba.

CEO of Fijian Holdings Limited which is the majority shareholder of Fiji TV, Nouzab Fareed says that full Olympics coverage will be given to Sky Pacific by Fiji TV as that was part of the agreement when Sky Pacific was purchased by Digicel Fiji.

Digicel Fiji says it is still sorting out broadcast coverage details and will make further announcements soon.

Digicel Fiji CEO, Darren McLean will comment later on all these issues.
