Nickelodeon Ukraine (Ukrainian; Нікелодеон Україна) was a Ukrainian language channel which appeared on Pluto TV.
Nickelodeon started in Ukraine in October 1998 as a programming block on the Ukrainian television station QTV.
On 5 November 2003, a Ukrainian version of the channel was launched in Russian using the Pan-European feed.
On 31 August 2017, the Ukrainian-language Nickelodeon block ended after the close-down of QTV.
On 1 June 2023, 1+1 Media Group and Paramount Global announced that Nickelodeon had become available for viewers to watch in Ukrainian, after a Ukrainian audio track was added to Nickelodeon CEE. [1]
On 1 April 2022 during Russian invasion of Ukraine, Nickelodeon Ukraine returned as a pop up channel for Poland, Germany and Spain on Pluto TV. [2] As for Spain and Portugal, users could watch the channel using Pluto TV, and other TV services such as Movistar Plus+, Vodafone TV or Meo.
Due to the addition of a Ukrainian audio track to Nickelodeon CEE, Nickelodeon Ukraine on Pluto TV closed on 30 June 2023. [3]
