Whakaata Māori

Whakaata Māori (formerly Māori Television) is a New Zealand television channel that broadcasts programmes that make a significant contribution to the revitalisation of the Māori language and culture. Funded by the New Zealand Government, the station started broadcasting on 28 March 2004 from a base in Newmarket. In July 2015 the Māori Television board decided that Hamilton, or Rotorua could be a new home for the broadcaster.
