The New Zealand Media Landscape Report provides an overview of the television and telecommunications market in relation to sports broadcasting in New Zealand today, with top-level data and detailed forecasts of key indicators up to 2026. The report analyses the television, mobile handset and residential fixed-line broadband sectors, as well as a review of major sports media rights.
Key Highlights
- Vodafone, to be rebranded as ‘One NZ' for 2023, announced in December 2021 that it would shut down cable TV service VodafoneTV in September 2022.
- 5G subscriptions will corner an estimated 17.8% share of the total mobile subscriptions by 2026, as MNOs such as Vodafone and Spark have been focusing on 5G network expansion to new areas of the country.
- Fiber will continue to be the leading technology to deliver residential fixed broadband services in New Zealand over 2021-2026. This growth can be attributed to the New Zealand governments investment to extend its Ultra-Fast Broadband (UFB) national fiber network.
Scope
- Pay-TV household penetration will continue to fall over the forecast period, reaching 23.1% in 2026, as a result of migration from pay-TV services to streaming platforms, and the closure of VodafoneTV.
- 4G services had a 76.3% share of the total mobile subscriptions in 2020 and will remain the leading technology during the 2021-2026 period.
- Smartphone subscription penetration of population reached 89.4% in 2021. Over the forecast period, the smartphone subscription penetration of the population will increase to 103.6%.
- Total fixed broadband lines in New Zealand will increase from 1.9 million in 2021 to 2.2 million by 2026-end, driven by collective efforts of the government and operators to expand internet coverage across the country.
