Max, Warner Bros. Discovery’s streaming platform, is expanding its news offering with the launch of the CNN International live channel feed in 22 European countries. The launch, which takes place on August 29th, will bring the channel to viewers in Spain, Nordics, Belgium, Netherlands and Central and Eastern Europe.
The arrival of CNN International on Max in Europe coincides with the upcoming U.S. election, a pivotal event attracting global attention. Max subscribers will have access to comprehensive coverage of the campaign trail, including the ABC News Presidential Debate between former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris. The debate will be simulcast on CNN International at 03.00 CET on September 11th in Europe and replayed at 08:00 and 20:00.
Beyond the U.S. election, Max subscribers will enjoy CNN International’s in-depth coverage of international news, encompassing a broad range of topics including business, travel, technology, and lifestyle.
The launch follows previous introductions of CNN International on Max in France and Poland in June. Max currently serves 65 countries and territories globally, including the U.S., Latin America, the Caribbean, and Europe. The platform is set to expand its reach to key Southeast Asia countries later this year.
