Delivering on NZ On Air’s digital strategy

More audiences served by funded local content. Funded content has a longer life.

NZ On Screen provides free access to local content going back over 80 years. Much of this content would have been otherwise inaccessible to the public past its original broadcast or distribution date.

More people can access local content when and where they wish to.

Our audiences can choose to view titles or read about NZ television, film, music, and the people who made it, online anytime.

We increase access by "going where the audiences are" on Facebook, Twitter, media websites, radio and television. You can find us at Facebook and Twitter.
