It’s important to stay up to date with the latest changes so you don’t miss your favorite shows.

Especially since channel numbers can sometimes change too.

Here are all the Virgin Media TV channel launches, changes and closures to look out for in March.

VIRGIN MEDIA CHANNEL LAUNCHES

A new channel will launch on Virgin Media in March.

DAZN Women’s Football includes coverage of the UEFA Women’s Champions League.

It will also show women’s Liga F matches as well as the Saudi Women’s Premier League.

Virgin Media says it is the first UK pay-TV platform to offer the DAZN Women’s Football channel through its set-top boxes, although everyone can access it for free via a popular alternative service.

VIRGIN MEDIA CHANNEL CLOSURES

Sadly, one channel is disappearing from Virgin Media boxes this month.

Young children’s channel Tiny POP is going digital-only, so it won’t appear on a traditional linear TV platform – this not only means the channel will disappear from Virgin Media, but also from Sky, Freeview and Freesat.

Luckily, fans can still stream it online via the following alternatives:

LG channels
Net avg
Samsung TV Plus
YouTube

Mark your calendars for the one channel closure that will take place on Virgin Media in March.
