VH1 Poland is a Polish music channel from Viacom International Media Networks Polska. It was launched on December 1, 2005, replacing MTV Classic, another Polish MTV channel which used to broadcast mainly classic videos. VH1 Poland shows almost only music-based programs and plays a much broader range of videos than its predecessor. Many themed music programs are broadcast on a daily or weekly basis.
From April 24, 2010 VH1 Poland ceased to operate as a 24-hour music channel and instead share space with the new Comedy Central branded channel Comedy Central Family. The new channel lined-up is more skewed towards female audiences.
On April 24, 2012 VH1 Poland started broadcasting again replacing VH1 Europe (only in Poland).
On June 12, 2012 VH1 Poland started broadcasting in 16:9 picture format.
