The Seven Network has unveiled the line-up of exclusive, hit content streaming on 7plus this summer.
7plus has a supersized summer schedule that will offer audiences a bigger and deeper selection of exciting entertainment shows, must-watch reality programs, gripping drama series and new FAST (free ad-supported streaming TV) channels.
On 15 January 2023, Seven will also launch the exciting new channel, 7Bravo, which along with Seven’s partnership with NBCUniversal, will bring the world’s best reality, entertainment and true crime content to Seven and 7plus, including the most iconic unscripted TV franchises Real Housewives, Below Deck and Million Dollar Listing.
New FAST channels will offer viewers more to explore on 7plus this summer, with an exclusive channel featuring hand-picked classic episodes of Home and Away, now live. Viewers can relive the most memorable births, deaths, marriages and tragedies from Summer Bay over the past 35 years, with the nostalgic episodes available on-demand on 7plus and scheduled chronologically on the Home and Away Classics FAST channel.
Almost half of all commercial BVOD streaming in Australia happens on 7plus and so far this year, 7plus has streamed over 11.74 billion minutes of content – over 140% more than the third-placed commercial network’s BVOD service.

“We are always looking at ways to enhance our content and viewing experience, and this summer we’re expanding our programming catalogue with over 2,000 extra hours of content – and that doesn’t even take into account the additional NBCU and 7Bravo programming coming in January.
