History

In 2007 ETB announced the launch of ETB4, a channel in Basque and Spanish that would be dedicated to information and culture, in a similar way to La 2 and El 33, however, the financial crisis that broke out in the same year meant that the project was discarded. [1] Instead of ETB 4, ETBK Sat was programmed, the new interim channel combined sports broadcasts with programs from ETB 1 and ETB 2 that were broadcast on ETB Sat.

ETB 4 was launched on October 29, 2014, replacing ETBK Sat on the Basque Country without there being a previous announcement of the change of identity of the channel. [1]

Programming

ETB 4 programming is based on entertainment, highlighting fiction, sports and reruns of ETB 1 and ETB 2 programs.
