Entertainment at your fingertips

All active decoder subscribers on DStv Family, Access, Compact and Compact Plus packages will automatically receive an upsized package for the festive season, at no extra cost.

This offer applies to active subscriptions between 10 November and 31 December. DStv Family and Access subscribers will be upsized to Compact, while Compact and Compact Plus subscribers will be upsized to Premium. Customers who sign up or reconnect during this period will also automatically benefit.

With this upsizing in place, viewers gain access to even more channels and content, including limited-time pop-up channels and live sporting action, making this festive season truly unmissable.

Festive pop-up channels and live sport
