Télé Bleue comes freely into your homes as most of the terrestrially broadcast ,and concerns all types of TV viewers.

Télé Bleue is a TV in which people can find again their region cultural identity , based on a vivid bullfighting tradition , between the cévennes and sea , in a crossroads area between languedoc and provence , a part of the human cultural heritage.

Télé Bleue is the local television.

its programmes only come from local culture , life and creation on every aspect :art , music ,sports ,gastronomy ,new ,every day life ,economy...

such a concept , which has already been valued elsewhere in the world, and gets up to 30% penetration in some European community countries, makes its first appearance in French.

of course we cannot afford to make broadcasting super productions costing several millions dollars an hour, but it meets local people needs , eager to watch images from their region , to know economic potentials and to be informed about their vicinity.

thus Télé Bleue is today's and tomorrow's medium.

in order to make your actions and your products known.
