The MENA region is a region of great potential; more than 102.1 million of its total 305.5 million population are kids. Since Cartoon Network Arabic is a free to air channel, we have the potential to reach all kids across the region especially considering that only 2% of the total population have access to Pay TV. In addition, the extensive array of exciting shows available on the channel plays a vital role in our success. Ranging from programs such as Ben10 Ultimate Alien, Adventure Time, Skatoony, The Smurfs and the upcoming titles such as Generator Rex and Gumball, CN Arabic has a show for every taste and gender.

As a result of the free to air strategy implemented and the richness of our programming schedule, our penetration and viewing figures have increased rapidly since launch.
