At its NewFront presentation this Wednesday, GSTV, the national video network engaging and entertaining targeted audiences at scale across tens of thousands of fuel retailers, will unveil a slate of new partners, as well as original content coming to its network this year. The upcoming content slate will further cement GSTV as a video entertainment platform inspiring and engaging GSTV’s 116 million unique monthly viewers across the US ahead of key shoppable moments.
New partners include Matador Network, Prestige Entertainment, and Benzinga, and a refreshed series with Live Nation. Matador Network, the number one travel destination on TikTok, engages millions of viewers with its all-new travel-inspired programming series, Must-See America. Developed in partnership with GSTV, it will highlight travel trends, tips, inspiration, seasonal travel guides, holiday-themed destinations, and more. Benzinga educates and entertains GSTV viewers with snackable financial journalism as it relates to blockchain, cryptocurrency, trading, NFTs and more. In addition, Prestige Entertainment will bring beloved game show Name That Tune to GSTV screens nationwide. Promoted by music icon Randy Jackson, the series will allow viewers to test their music knowledge, unveiling key clues as they fuel up. In keeping with this music focus, GSTV Sounds Bites powered by Live Nation brings musical artists ranging from Macklemore to Nickelback and more to GSTV screens as they share interviews from touring on the road and what drives them every day.
“By doubling down on new content partners and unveiling new original programming, we want to further distinguish GSTV as a video platform where advertisers can organically integrate with or place advertising content adjacent to our entertaining, informative, and family-friendly content,” said Sean McCaffrey, president and CEO of GSTV. “Our personality-driven content features familiar faces for viewers across America. Our goal is to continue evolving the GSTV experience, providing an entertaining, engaging respite for consumers as they fuel up.”
