History and profile

edit

TV Klan launched as an Albanian joint-venture, with its first broadcast airing on 25 October 1997.[2] It is the first private TV channel in Albania.[citation needed]

On 1 August 1998, at 7:30 PM (19:30), TV Klan made its first news report ever on its channel.[3] The first chronicle of TV Klan is about the murder of Taulant Buça.[4] In 2002, ISO rated the channel as the most highly rated in Albania with 21.5% of audience share. As of 2006, the channel's analogue signal covered around 60% of Albania's territory.[5]

TV Klan is a media group that includes Klan Plus, Radio Klan, Klan News, Klan Music, ABC News (Albania), Klan Kosova, and North Macedonia-based Klan Macedonia. The channel package is available in Europe through Tring (Pay television) and DigitAlb (Pay television) platforms. The package is also available, for free, in all around the world through OTT application KLANI IM (Android and iOS).[6]

TV Klan is known for its long-standing political show Opinion, hosted by Blendi Fevziu; entertainment shows such as Këngët e Shekullit, Gjeniu i Vogël, Dance with Me, X Factor Albania, Kënga Ime, Zonë e Lirë, E Diela Shqiptare, Xing me Ermalin, Stop, Rudina, Aldo Morning Show; and various co-productions.[citation needed]

Since 4 March 2012, TV Klan has been the first national TV channel in southeastern Europe and Albania to begin broadcasting 24 hours in HD without charging additional fees to customers.[7] It is the first station in Albania to own a satellite news gathering mobile broadcasting studio.[8]

On 31 August 2017, TV Klan's analog transmission had ceased which marked an end to the channel's analog transmission. No recording of its analog shutdown was found but a recreation of how it looked like is available on YouTube.[9]

On 3 May 2018, TV Klan announced that it had signed an agreement to purchase 100% of the assets of Art Channel, an Albanian broadcaster in North Macedonia.[10] The channel was re-branded with the name Klan Maqedonia (Klan Macedonia).

According to the Audiovisual Media Authority, In 2020, Radio Klan became the third privately-owned radio station to receive national frequency status in Albania.[11]
