History

Nickelodeon started in Ukraine in October 1998 as a programming block on the Ukrainian television station QTV.

On 5 November 2003, a Ukrainian version of the channel was launched in Russian using the Pan-European feed.

In 1 September 2017, the Ukrainian-language Nickelodeon block was abolished due to QTV closing down the same month.

On 1 June 2023, 1+1 Media Group and Paramount Global announced that Nickelodeon had become available for viewers to watch in Ukrainian, after a Ukrainian audio track was added to Nickelodeon CEE.[1]

On 1 April 2022 during Russian invasion of Ukraine, Nickelodeon Ukraine returned as a pop up channel for Poland, Germany and Spain on Pluto TV.[2] As for Spain and Portugal, users could watch the channel using Pluto TV, and other TV services such as Movistar Plus+, Vodafone TV or Meo.

Due to the addition of a Ukrainian audio track to Nickelodeon CEE, Nickelodeon Ukraine Pluto TV closed on 1 July 2023,[3] although the active operation of the channel ended on June 30.[4]
