Family fun with DStv this December

It’s a season of love, laughter and true togetherness when you Choose Joy with DStv this December. Just peek under your DStv tree and you’ll find so many shows filled with innocent fun, creativity and holiday spirit that you can enjoy as a family.

The cooking shows will grab even the kids’ attention. They’re filled with spectacular creations from the likes of Buddy and Duff and The Great British Bake Off, ice sculptors team up with bakers to make crazy cakes in Santa’s Baking Blizzard, and there’s local flavour, too, when Minki challenges 3 chefs to make something marvellous for us.

There are movies for everyone, from Mickey & Minnie Wish Upon A Christmas, which will delight everyone from the tinies to the grandparents, to family friendly local movies like Nativ(ity) and A Zulu Christmas. These are films filled with the magic and wonder of the season – like First Christmas, The Christmas Market and A Gospel Christmas – that celebrate our love for our homes and our communities. And where there are love stories involved, things stop at a sweet kiss.

Our Christmas stocking is stuffed with specials like Royal Variety Performance 2021, ’n Ster Vir Kersfees, The Cube Christmas Special, and Supervet Christmas Special 2021, along with family-friendly shows like Kids Say The Darndest Things Season 2, Hot Mess House Seasons 1 & 2, Meet The Meerkats and Flexible Buildings. And there are kids shows that will have grownups rolling, too, like Bugs Bunny’s 24 Carrot Holiday Special.

Whatever your family’s tastes, there’s something for everyone. And there’s so much more to see when you Choose Joy with DStv this festive season.
