Gulli is a French free-to-air television channel focused on kids programming. It was created as a result of a partnership between Lagardère Active and state-owned broadcaster France Télévisions. In 2019, the M6 Group bought Gulli as well as the television division of the Lagardère Active Group.

Branding

At the CSA hearings for the new DTT channels, the channel was presented under the name of Gulliver, named after Jonathan Swift's character Gulliver's Travels, before being baptized Gulli.

On 8 April 2010, Gulli puts on the air a new branding designed by Gédéon. On the same occasion, the channel is modernizing its logo, which has become darker, giving it volume and changing to 16/9 but dynamically (4:3 and 16:9 aspect ratio).

A new branding, again designed by the Gédéon, is on the air in September 2013.

On 28 August 2017, Gulli changed its branding. This branding is done by the 17MARS. This new skin receives very positive reviews and gives a lot of color to the channel.
