Goverment Information Unit Promotes Festival and Christmas Spirit with Television Special

The Government Information Unit (GIU), under the portfolio of the Office of the Premier, is doing its part to promote the Festival and Christmas spirit.

The Unit has announced the broadcasting of past and current Festival events, along with other local Christmas productions through-out the month of December.

This is part of a special television programming arrangement in collaboration with Digicel Montserrat.

Television broadcasts begins this evening at 7:00p.m. and will continue throughout the weekend, and every weekend in the month of December.

Scheduled content will be aired on channel 96 with technical support from Digicel and Radio Montserrat’s technical department.

The virtual events for Carnival 2020 however, would not be available on the channel until after each event has ended, as an online pay-per-view system will be in place during the live stream of those events.

To ensure persons are aware of the playout schedule, weekly television guides, outlining the programme line-up for each weekend will be advertised on GIU’s Facebook page; channel 96; on ZJB and on Spirit of Montserrat.
