Citytv continues to evolve the way Canadians can experience its gripping dramas, binge-worthy reality series, hit comedies, and award-winning news reporting with the debut of two new video streaming products – Citytv+ and CityNews 24/7.
Available to Prime members, Citytv+ includes the live stream of blockbuster franchises and must-watch titles from Citytv, FX, and FXX, plus access to the three channels’ complete library of video-on-demand content. Included as part of Citytv+, which is available for $4.99 per month and includes a free 30-day trial, is live news and entertainment programming from multilingual OMNI Television. Prime members can also access a free tier of Citytv’s live programming schedule.
Also available on Prime Video is CityNews 24/7, a free stream for Prime members of the most relevant news, entertainment, and sports stories from its award-winning team of reporters, plus the latest headlines, weather, and traffic. Launched last week on CityNews’ digital platforms, CityNews 24/7 also includes live coverage of Breakfast Television and CityNews local newscasts.
“It’s been exciting to work with our partners at Prime Video to launch Citytv+ and showcase the incredible work by our teams through shows like Canada’s Got Talent, while also giving Canadians another way to binge our hit content like The Bachelorette, Chicago Med, Fire, and P.D., Law & Order, and Mayans M.C.,” said Julie Adam, President of News & Entertainment, Rogers Sports & Media. “When it comes to news, the world has never needed trusted journalism more than it does today, and CityNews 24/7 ensures more audiences can access the powerful storytelling from our world-class journalists.”

With dynamic ad insertion technology and first-party data, we continue to build on our position as leaders in Connected TV and streaming in Canada and work even more closely with marketers on total TV opportunities across all platforms,” said Janice Smith, Vice President of National Media Sales, Rogers Sports & Media.
