If you're looking for a TV package in South Africa that keeps the whole family entertained without breaking the bank, the DStv Family package might be just what you need. It offers a great mix of channels, from kids' shows to sports and movies. But before you sign up, you probably want to know exactly which channels you'll be getting.

The DStv Family package comes with over 75 channels, offering a wide variety of entertainment for everyone. You'll find channels for movies, kids' shows, documentaries, and even some sports. It’s a solid mid-tier option that has a little something for each family member.

What Channels Are on DStv Family?

Let's break down the channels you can expect to find. I've grouped them into categories to make it easier for you to see what's available.

For the Kids and Teens

This is where the DStv Family package really shines. My niece is obsessed with cartoons, and when she visits, I can always find something for her to watch. There are channels like:

• Cartoon Network
• Disney Channel
• Nickelodeon
• Nick Jr
• Dreamworks

Entertainment and Movies

When the kids are in bed, there’s plenty for the adults to watch too. I remember getting hooked on a series on Universal TV last year and binge-watching it over a weekend. You get great channels like:

• Universal TV
• BBC Lifestyle
• Comedy Central
• Moja Love
• Mzansi Wethu
• A selection of Movie channels

Documentaries and Lifestyle

If you're a fan of learning new things or getting home improvement ideas, you'll enjoy these channels:

• National Geographic
• HGTV (Home & Garden Television)
• Discovery Family

Sports Channels

While you won't get all the SuperSport channels that come with the Premium package, you still get access to some sports action, which is perfect for casual fans. I find it’s just enough to catch the big local games without paying for channels I’ll never watch. You can expect channels covering:

• Local Football
• WWE
• Select international football matches

News and Information

Stay up-to-date with what's happening in the world with a range of local and international news channels, including:

• SABC News
• eNCA
• BBC World News
• CNN

I find that the DStv Family package has just the right amount of channels to keep me entertained. It’s not overwhelming, but there's always something to watch. It's great value for money, and speaking of value, did you know you can earn vouchers for things like airtime just by playing games on your phone? With the Points Castle app, you can complete surveys and play games to earn points that you can redeem for real rewards.
