About Us

WIN Network is Australia's largest commercial television broadcaster and one of the country's most extensive regional media networks. WIN broadcasts across 31 television markets in every Australian state and territory, reaching more than 10 million Australians.

In 2026, WIN further expanded its footprint through the acquisition of NBN Television, serving Northern New South Wales and the Gold Coast, and Nine Darwin, extending the network's operations into the Northern Territory and giving WIN a presence in every Australian state and territory.

Adding in the NBN and Nine Darwin broadcast areas, WIN Networks footprint has extended to include an additional 9 markets. It now includes an additional 2.379 million viewers across the markets of Newcastle, Central Coast, Taree, Port Macquarie, Coffs Harbour, Lismore, Gold Coast and Tamworth.

This brings the total reach of the WIN network to 12.4 million viewers, across 40 different Australian markets.

WIN commenced transmissions on 18 March 1962 as a single television station serving the Wollongong region of New South Wales. The network has since expanded to become Australia's largest regional television broadcaster, covering much of regional and remote Australia. The name WIN originates from its original station, Wollongong's WIN-4.

A cornerstone of WIN's commitment to regional communities is its local news service. 

WIN News produces and broadcasts dedicated weeknight local news bulletins across Queensland, New South Wales, Victoria and Tasmania, providing comprehensive coverage of regional issues, events and community stories. 

WIN News operates 25 bureaus contributing to 21 dedicated, local half hour news, sport and weather bulletins, each weeknight.

WIN operates under a long-term programme supply agreement with the Nine Network, broadcasting Nine's national news, sport and entertainment programming across Regional Queensland, the Gold Coast, Northern New South Wales, Southern New South Wales, Western New South Wales, Griffith, Regional Victoria, Mildura, Tasmania, Eastern South Australia, Regional Western Australia, the Australian Capital Territory, Northern New South Wales and Darwin.

Beyond broadcasting, WIN is a significant supporter of regional communities through a range of sponsorships, partnerships and community initiatives. The network provides extensive support for local sporting organisations, agricultural shows, regional festivals, charity fundraising campaigns and community events across its coverage areas. WIN has a long history of partnering with organisations including hospitals, health services, emergency services, community groups and not-for-profit organisations to promote community wellbeing and regional development.

WIN also delivers substantial community service broadcasting through public awareness campaigns, emergency information during natural disasters, road safety initiatives, health promotion programs and support for regional economic development. Through its local news operations and community engagement activities, the network remains committed to informing, connecting and supporting regional Australians.
