MultiChoice Kenya, a subsidiary of CANAL+, has announced a range of festive offers aimed at making world-class entertainment more affordable for Kenyan households as the year-end celebrations approach.
Under the promotion, new customers can enjoy significant price reductions on DStv and GOtv decoders, accessories, and subscription packages — part of the company’s effort to make quality entertainment more accessible while strengthening customer loyalty during the festive season.
The DStv Zapper decoder will now retail at KSh 850, down from KSh 1,199, while the GOtv decoder is priced at KSh 799, a discount from KSh 999. The DStv Dish Kit has also been reduced to KSh 1,650 (from KSh 2,000), while the GOtv antenna now costs KSh 700, down from KSh 1,000.
For customers seeking affordable viewing packages, the GOtv Value plan has been reduced to KSh 599, granting access to a wide range of local and international family-friendly content.
The offers will remain valid until December 31, 2025, across all MultiChoice Kenya service centres, authorised dealers, and retail outlets nationwide.
Making Entertainment Accessible for Every Home
Speaking during the launch, Nzola Miranda, Managing Director of MultiChoice Kenya, said the initiative is designed to bring people together during the holiday season through shared entertainment experiences.
“This festive season, we are turning every moment into a celebration by making it easier for families to connect with the content they love,” said Mr. Miranda. “Whether it is live football, local dramas, movies, or kids’ shows, our goal is to ensure there is something for everyone, in every home, at an affordable price.”
Mr. Miranda added that the campaign reflects MultiChoice’s continued commitment to providing value for money to its customers while supporting Kenya’s growing creative and broadcasting ecosystem.
“At MultiChoice, we believe entertainment brings people together, and there is no better time to celebrate connection and togetherness than during the festive season,” he said. “These offers are our way of saying thank you to our customers for their loyalty and trust, while inviting new customers to join our growing family.”
Diverse Content Line-Up for the Holiday Season
MultiChoice is highlighting a broad slate of local and international content across DStv and GOtv this festive season, catering to families, sports enthusiasts, and movie lovers alike.
Subscribers can look forward to local fan favourites such as Lazizi, Our Perfect Wedding, and Njoro wa Uba airing on Maisha Magic Plus, alongside a rich offering of children’s programming on Nicktoons, Cartoon Network, Moonbug, Disney, and CBeebies.
Sports fans can enjoy live coverage of top football leagues and tournaments, including the English Premier League and the upcoming Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON), while movie lovers will have access to blockbuster premieres and special festive programming across DStv’s entertainment channels.
The company’s wide range of content aims to ensure every household can experience “the joy of connection” — a key theme in MultiChoice’s holiday campaign.
Strengthening MultiChoice’s Local Footprint
The festive promotion underscores MultiChoice Kenya’s strategy of deepening market penetration and customer engagement, particularly among first-time digital TV users and value-driven households.
The company has continued to invest in affordable hardware and flexible packages, aligning with the spending habits of Kenyan consumers amid a recovering economy. The new pricing is also expected to attract rural and peri-urban households seeking affordable access to digital television.
Industry observers say such campaigns help sustain customer growth while stimulating Kenya’s broader media and creative industries.
“Price adjustments during the festive season are a proven driver of subscriber growth,” said Dr. Caroline Oloo, a media economics lecturer at Strathmore University. “For a company like MultiChoice, these offers not only boost sales but also expand the reach of local productions, which in turn supports Kenya’s film and television economy.”
Integration with CANAL+ and Content Expansion
Following its acquisition by CANAL+, MultiChoice has signaled plans to expand content investment and innovation across Africa. The company has been strengthening its technology platforms, content partnerships, and localized offerings to align with shifting viewer habits.
The holiday promotion in Kenya reflects a continued focus on market-specific strategies that combine affordability with premium entertainment value.
Through its DStv and GOtv brands, MultiChoice serves millions of subscribers across East Africa, offering access to global sports, news, movies, and local productions — a model that has made it one of the region’s most recognized entertainment providers.
“We want to ensure that every home in Kenya can access reliable, high-quality entertainment, no matter their budget,” Mr. Miranda emphasized. “By making our decoders and accessories more affordable, we’re not just selling hardware — we’re giving families an opportunity to share experiences and create lasting memories.”
Customer Access and Availability
Customers interested in purchasing decoders or accessories can visit any MultiChoice Kenya Service Centre, authorised DStv and GOtv dealers, or leading retail outlets nationwide. The offer applies exclusively to new customers and remains valid while stocks last through December 31, 2025.
Existing customers can also take advantage of festive programming and upgraded viewing experiences through DStv App and Showmax, MultiChoice’s streaming platforms, ensuring seamless entertainment across devices.
The company continues to encourage users to register for MyDStv and MyGOtv self-service platforms for easier account management, payments, and troubleshooting — part of its long-term push toward digital convenience and customer empowerment.
Celebrating Kenya’s Shared Festive Spirit
As Kenyans prepare for the holiday season, MultiChoice’s promotion is expected to play a key role in strengthening its connection with households seeking affordable, family-oriented entertainment.
The festive offers — combined with an expansive content line-up and accessible technology — reaffirm the company’s leadership in Kenya’s pay-TV market while aligning with its broader goal of promoting connection and shared experiences.
“Entertainment is at the heart of every celebration,” said Mr. Miranda. “Our mission this festive season is simple — to make every home a place of joy, laughter, and togetherness.”
