Aruba’s television services reflect the island’s multilingual character as well as its close ties to local culture and tourism. Telearuba, based in Pos Chikito, has operated since 1963 as Aruba’s first television station and continues to place strong emphasis on local news, cultural events, entertainment, sports, and community affairs. Papiamento is central to its locally focused programming, with Spanish also used in its news output. ArubaTV Plus, based in Oranjestad, was created in 2022 and presents tourism, culture, entertainment, local events, and community life in English, Papiamento, and Dutch.
