History

Format

MTV Hits is a non-advertisement channel, dedicated to worldwide songs from 10s era and beyond. Occasionally, in special segments, songs from 00s and earlier eras can also be seen. (Since February 2023, songs from the 00s have been appearing in several programs, e.g. Party Hits!)

Since VH1 Europe's closure, MTV Hits began creating new segments - top 50, artists' greatest hits, programmes dedicated to the day/month's theme - to fit in for the previous programming of that channel.
