'''HRT Plus''' was a Croatian satellite channel owned by the public service broadcaster, HRT. The channel was available via Hot Bird, cable and Max TV, in Croatia and parts of Europe, America, and Australia.
==History== Before the launch of HRT Plus on 29 March 2004, HRT 3 provided sports programming since 7 November 1994 until 28 March 2004. The next day, HRT Plus was launched, with the HRT 3 frequency denationalized and transferred to RTL Croatia.
On 19 April 2004, HRT Plus started broadcasting. The channel broadcast for sixteen hours a day from 10am to 2am.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://satkurier.pl/news/12662/ruszyl-hrt-plus.html|title=Ruszył HRT Plus|website=saturier.pl|accessdate=May 13, 2025}}</ref> In October 2005, plans to replace HRT Plus were outlined, initially by a dedicated HRT Sport channel in a three-to-six month period,<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://satkurier.pl/news/27060/hrt-sport-zamiast-hrt-plus.html|title=HRT Sport zamiast HRT Plus|website=saturier.pl|accessdate=May 13, 2025}}</ref> before later replacing the plan with the return of HRT 3 in November 2005, with no tentative launch date and no changes to the programming.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://satkurier.pl/news/28129/hrt3-zamiast-hrt-plus.html|title=HRT3 zamiast HRT Plus|website=saturier.pl|accessdate=May 13, 2025}}</ref>
