Latest News About Network 10 Win Deal End

Here’s the latest on Network 10’s deal with WIN and the end dates you asked about.

Summary

• Three regional markets in Australia—Griffith (NSW), Mount Gambier and Riverland (both in SA)—will lose access to Network 10 and related channels when WIN’s agreement ends. The change is set to take effect around mid-2026, with ongoing discussions and official statements indicating a July 2026 cutoff for service in those regions. This reflects a shift in regional broadcasting arrangements as WIN declines to renew with Network 10. [Sources indicate an expiration around June 30, 2026, with withdrawal effective from July 2026 in affected markets.][2][4]

Details by region

• Griffith, NSW; Mount Gambier, SA; Riverland, SA: These three markets are specifically named as affected. Free-to-air access to Network 10 and associated channels (including 7mate/7two in some listings) is slated to cease once WIN’s Program Supply Agreement with Network 10 expires.[4][2]
• After the withdrawal, affected viewers would rely on alternative access (e.g., streaming) if available, though regional streaming options may vary by market.[4]

Context and related notes

• The underlying driver is financial pressure on regional broadcasters and affiliate arrangements that historically enabled these networks to be carried in smaller markets. The parties have not extended the existing deal, leading to the planned end-date for traditional broadcasts in the three regions.[2][4]
• Network 10 has pursued regional expansion in other markets via acquisitions of licences, helping it broaden its foothold outside major cities; however, that expansion does not appear to prevent the WIN relationship from ending in these specific regional markets.[3][8][9]

What this means for viewers

• If you are in Griffith, Mount Gambier, or the Riverland, you should expect a loss of access to Network 10’s main channel and related 10-branded services on free-to-air platforms starting around July 2026, unless a last-minute agreement is reached.[2][4]
• Access to programming will likely shift toward streaming options, subject to regional availability and any alternative agreements that might arise.[4][2]
