About Nick Schweiz
What is Nick Schweiz?
Nick Schweiz is a popular TV channel for children and teenagers in Switzerland. It broadcasts in German. The channel is part of the big ViacomCBS company. It's like a special version of Nickelodeon just for Switzerland.
History of the Channel
The Nick Schweiz TV channel officially started on April 1, 2009. When it first launched, it shared its broadcast time with another channel called VIVA Switzerland. This means they would show Nick Schweiz for part of the day and VIVA Switzerland for the rest.
Before it became its own channel, Nickelodeon shows were actually part of a special block on a Swiss channel called TF. This happened from 1998 to 2003. So, kids in Switzerland could watch Nickelodeon shows even before the full channel existed!
