History

Joi and Joi +1 began broadcasting on 19 January 2008 at 1.30pm, as part of Mediaset Premium's conversion into a full pay-TV service and the creation of the Premium Gallery package. [1]

On 21 September 2010, coinciding with the launch of The Event , the channel underwent a graphics restyling.

On 1 July 2011 Joi +1 (together with Steel +1 and Mya +1) ceased broadcasting.

On 1 January 2013 the channel renewed itself, moving towards an editorial line dedicated to entertainment and airing many TV series previously broadcast on Mya or Steel.

On 1 March 2016, a new timeshift version of the channel, Joi +24, was activated on channel 316 which broadcast the previous day's deferred programming. This version ceased broadcasting on 19 April 2018.

On 1 June 2018 the channel also lands on Infinity [2] and on 4 June it lands on Sky in HD. [3]
