Television in Angola was introduced in 1973 at an experimental level with regular broadcasts starting in 1975. There was only one local television channel until 2000, when TPA opened its second channel.[1] The first private television station opened in 2008, ending a 33-year monopoly period.[2]

The country uses the PAL format for analog and ISDB-T for digital. Angola became the second African country (after Botswana) to deploy the standard. Implementation of the digital terrestrial system has been sluggish, being announced in 2011, with the first tests being co-ordinated by engineers from Brazilian state company Inatel.[3]

The following is a list of television channels broadcast in Angola.
