It has regional branches in most of the major Polish cities and, similarly to the France 3 in France or Rai Tre in Italy, for a couple of hours every day it broadcast regional programming, including local news and reports. On 20 December 2023, TVP3's signal was shut down and instead, TVP2 started being broadcast. On the same day, the website was shut down and started redirecting to the main TVP website, but on 26 December 2023, the channel returned to the air.
==History==
=== 1994–2002 (as TVP Regionalna) === In the early 1990s, the regional branches of Telewizja Polska (TVP) began launching full-day regional programming, while still airing selected segments (mainly local news) as local slots within the TVP2 schedule.<ref>{{Cite web |date=24 December 1993 |title=III program TVP |url=https://classic.wyborcza.pl/archiwumGW/142004/III-program-TVP |access-date=21 October 2025 |website=classic.wyborcza.pl}}</ref>
In 1994, the first management board of TVP S.A. realized that the regional branches were not yet capable of filling several hours of daily programming.<ref name=":0">{{Cite journal |last=Grzybczak |first=Jarosław |title=Telewizja regionalna w reformie TV |url=http://old.mbc.malopolska.pl/Content/65964/2002_01_02.pdf |journal=Zeszyty Prasoznawcze |location=Kraków |publisher=Ośrodek Badań Prasoznawczych Uniwersytet Jagielloński |page=23 |issn=0555-0025}}</ref> Consequently, the eleven existing regional centers at the time decided to create a shared programming block.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Polska.

On 5 September 1994, ten TVP centers launched a daily, nearly four-hour block of shared program and advertising content.<ref name=":0" /><ref name=":1" /> It began at 3:10 p.m. with the animated fairy tale ''“Abdallah ziemski i Abdallah morski”'' ("Abdallah of the Earth and Abdallah of the Sea").<ref name=":1" /> The block was divided into three parts:
* '''3:10–4:30 p.m.''' – children’s and youth programs, * '''5:35–6:05 p.m.''' – TV series, * '''7:15–9:15 p.m.''' – feature and documentary films.<ref name=":0" />
This system of shared programming was named "The Network" (''Sieć'').<ref name=":0" />
In July 1996, TVP’s management established the twelfth regional branch – OTV Białystok.<ref>{{Cite web |date=22 May 2009 |title=O ośrodku |url=https://bialystok.tvp.pl/619764/o-osrodku |access-date=21 October 2025 |website=TVP3 Białystok}}</ref> However, the Białystok center did not yet launch its own programming that year.<ref>{{Cite report |url=http://www.archiwum.krrit.gov.pl/Data/Files/_public/Portals/0/sprawozdania/spr1997/inf1997.pdf |title=Informacje o podstawowych problemach radiofonii i telewizji |year=1997 |publisher=Krajowa Rada Radiofonii i Telewizji |location=Warsaw |page=2 |chapter=I.

By 2001, the shared programming block accounted for over 75% of regional broadcasting time. The block was compiled by the Office of Regional Programs (''Biuro Programów Regionalnych'' – BRP) in Warsaw.<ref name=":2">{{Cite report |url=http://www.archiwum.krrit.gov.pl/Data/Files/_public/Portals/0/sprawozdania/spr2002/inf2002.pdf |title=Informacja o podstawowych problemach Radiofonii i Telewizji |publisher=Krajowa Rada Radiofonii i Telewizji |location=Warsaw |publication-date=March 2002 |page=32 |chapter=II.

==== Programming statistics for 2001 ==== In 2001, the twelve regional branches of TVP held a 3.5% share of the Polish TV market.<ref name=":2" /> Local programming was broadcast on weekdays in the following time slots:
* '''Morning:''' 8:00–8:35 a.m. * '''Afternoon:''' 3:25–4:30 p.m. and 5:15–7:00 p.m. * '''Evening:''' 9:30–10:00 p.m.
On weekends, the hours differed slightly:
* '''Morning:''' 8:00–9:00 a.m. * '''Midday:''' 1:30–2:30 p.m. * '''Afternoon:''' 5:00–7:00 p.m. (or 6:00–6:20 p.m.) * '''Evening:''' 9:00–10:00 p.m.<ref name=":2" />
The regional programming schedule had a universal character.<ref name=":2" /> The main portion of airtime consisted of feature films, series, and animated films, which together made up 53.3% of annual broadcast time.<ref name=":2" /> Most films were American productions (11%), followed by Polish (5%) and British (3.3%).<ref name=":2" />
Other program categories by share of annual airtime in 2001 were as follows:<ref name=":2" />
* '''Documentaries:''' 14.6% (more than half were reportages) * '''Educational programs:''' 8.8% (most aired in the shared block – 6.5%) * '''Public affairs:''' 8.8% * '''Entertainment:''' 5.9% (mostly in the shared block) * '''News:''' 5.6% * '''Music:''' 4.9% (mostly in the shared block – 3.6%) * '''Sports:''' 4.8% (mostly in the shared block – 3.7%) * '''Religious programs:''' 1.3% (four times more in local than shared blocks) * '''Theatrical and dramatized productions:''' 0.5% (mostly in the shared block)
=== 2002–2007 (as TVP3) === By the autumn of 2000, regional broadcasting segments were already using a shared name and logo – TVP3.<ref>{{Cite web |date=17 October 2007 |title=Trójka zamiast magnolii |url=https://classic.wyborcza.pl/archiwumGW/1244847/Trojka-zamiast-magnolii |access-date=22 October 2025 |website=classic.wyborcza.pl}}</ref> The shared programming block also adopted this branding.
On 3 March 2002, TVP3 officially launched, replacing the previous regional programs across Poland.<ref name=":3">{{Cite web |date=21 February 2002 |title=Rusza nowa "trójka" |url=https://classic.wyborcza.pl/archiwumGW/1676974/Rusza-nowa--trojka- |access-date=22 October 2025 |website=classic.wyborcza.pl}}</ref> All TVP regional stations were reorganized as regional branches of TVP3, airing their local programs in designated time slots on the shared nationwide feed. As a result, TVP3 was treated as one channel with local windows.
The channel offered a variety of content, primarily news and current affairs,<ref name=":3" /> but also feature films, documentaries, TV series, magazines, and sports coverage. Its flagship news program was ''Kurier''.
From late August 2002, parliamentary sessions of the Sejm were broadcast exclusively on TVP3’s national feed, whereas they had previously also aired on TVP2.<ref>{{Cite web |date=27 August 2002 |title=Z Dwójki Trójka |url=https://classic.wyborcza.pl/archiwumGW/1818825/Z-Dwojki-Trojka |access-date=22 October 2025 |website=classic.wyborcza.pl}}</ref>
In March 2003, the channel received a new visual identity and logo.<ref>{{Cite web |date=7 March 2003 |title=Nowe logo TVP |url=https://www.wirtualnemedia.pl/nowe-logo-tvp,7173361147168897a |access-date=22 October 2025 |website=wirtualnemedia.pl}}</ref><ref name=":4">{{Cite web |date=9 September 200 |title=Nowa scenografia TVP 3 |url=https://www.wirtualnemedia.pl/nowa-scenografia-tvp-3,7173299692312705a |access-date=22 October 2025 |website=wirtualnemedia.pl}}</ref> On 7 September 2003, ''Kurier'' and TVP3’s public affairs shows adopted new studio designs,<ref name=":4" /> featuring white and green colors inspired by the new logo.

==== Programming statistics for 2006 ==== In 2006, TVP3 held a 4.8% share of the Polish television market.

On average, regional TVP3 branches broadcast just over 4 hours of programming per day.<ref name=":6">{{Cite book |author-link=National Broadcasting Council |url=http://www.archiwum.krrit.gov.pl/Data/Files/_public/Portals/0/sprawozdania/spr2007/krrit_info_2007.pdf |title=Informacja o podstawowych problemach Radiofonii i Telewizji |year=2007 |pages=77–81, 145 |chapter=II.

The bulletins lasted about 15 minutes each and were aired on weekdays from 6:00 to 9:30 a.m. every 15 minutes, and from 10:00 a.m. every 30 minutes.

According to the plans presented, the new '''TVP Regionalna''' (initially referred to as ''TVP3 Regiony'') would broadcast 18–20 hours of programming daily, gradually increasing its airtime. The schedule was to include 4.5 hours of original programming and 2.5 hours of co-produced content, with a strong emphasis on news and public affairs.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Dąbek |first=Anita |date=23 May 2013 |title=TVP3 Regiony od 1 września |url=https://satkurier.pl/news/85931/tvp3-regiony-od-1-wrzesnia.html |access-date=22 October 2025 |website=satkurier.pl}}</ref>

On 4 January 2016, new morning and afternoon time slots were introduced. Originally, this was meant to be the beginning of a much broader reform planned for the spring of 2016.
According to the 6+6+4 concept proposed by the then president of TVP, Janusz Daszczyński, each of the 16 regional channels was to broadcast 16 hours of regional and local programming daily, divided into two 6-hour blocks (7:00–13:00 and 13:00–19:00) and one 4-hour block (19:00–23:00). The six-hour block would be repeated in parts during the remaining hours, so that individual programs would appear two or three times per day. The plan also included hourly news flashes created under the Mojo concept ('''''mo'''bile '''jo'''urnalism'').<ref name=":11" />
Within the 6+6+4 framework, several universal and supra-regional programs were also to be broadcast across all 16 regions, including ''Młodzież kontra...'' produced by TVP3 Kraków, ''Telekurier'' by TVP3 Poznań, and ''Kultowe rozmowy'' by TVP3 Bydgoszcz. However, in February 2016, TVP withdrew from the plan after Jacek Kurski became the new president.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Pallus |first=Patryk |date=4 February 2016 |title=TVP3 bez rewolucji.

Local TVP3 programs were switched to the new HD picture standard in connection with Poland’s transition from DVB-T/MPEG-4 to DVB-T2/HEVC terrestrial broadcasting. Initially, this change was scheduled for 2022, but it was delayed due to the extension of MUX 3 broadcasting in the old standard until the end of 2023.<ref name=":12" /><ref>{{Cite web |last=Kaźmierska |first=Anita |date=25 March 2022 |title=MUX 3 TVP pozostanie na razie w DVB-T [akt.] |url=https://satkurier.pl/news/215585/mux-3-tvp-pozostanie-na-razie-w-dvb-t-akt.html |access-date=22 October 2025 |website=satkurier.pl}}</ref>

=== After 20 December 2023 === Due to changes in the management of Telewizja Polska, Polskie Radio, and the Polish Press Agency (PAP) introduced by the Minister of Culture and National Heritage Bartłomiej Sienkiewicz, on 20 December 2023, around midday, the TVP3 channel (both the shared block and regional branch programs) was suspended. During this time, TVP2’s signal was broadcast instead.
On 26 December 2023, after 10:00 a.m., TVP3’s shared block resumed broadcasting.<ref>{{Cite web |date=27 December 2023 |title=Kanał TVP3 wznowił nadawanie |url=https://www.wirtualnemedia.pl/kanal-tvp3-jak-odbierac-tvp3-warszawa-tvp3-krakow-tvp3-wroclaw-tvp3-gdansk,7169451410507393a |access-date=22 October 2025 |website=wirtualnemedia.pl}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |date=26 December 2023 |title=TVP 3 wznowił nadawanie.

After the resumption of the shared programming, the ''TVP3 Info'' block and rebroadcasts of Radio Trójka’s current affairs programs were removed from the schedule.
== Availability == TVP3 channels are broadcast free of charge as part of the nationwide third multiplex of digital terrestrial television (MUX 3). They are also available in all cable networks and on digital satellite platforms (where only TVP3 Warszawa is offered), in accordance with the so-called must carry rule — a provision in the Broadcasting and Television Act that requires every television operator to offer seven mandatory channels. These include three public channels — TVP1, TVP2, and TVP3 — and four private ones — TVN, Polsat, TV4, and TV Puls.
=== Digital terrestrial television === On 27 October 2010, TVP’s regional branches began broadcasting their programs on MUX 3,<ref>{{Cite web |last=Dąbek |first=Anita |date=27 October 2010 |title=Mux 3 już nadaje |url=https://satkurier.pl/news/60269/mux-3-juz-nadaje.html |access-date=23 October 2025 |website=satkurier.pl}}</ref> within the local windows of TVP Info, and a year later also on MUX 1.
On 1 September 2013, regional programming moved to TVP Regionalna and began broadcasting exclusively on MUX 3, while TVP Info was available only on MUX 1 until 15 February 2014, when the channel was moved to MUX 3.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Grzeszczak |first=Jacek |date=31 August 2013 |title=Zmiany w MUX I i MUX III DVB-T od 1.09 |url=https://satkurier.pl/news/89599/zmiany-w-mux-i-i-mux-iii-dvb-t-od-109.html |access-date=23 October 2025 |website=satkurier.pl}}</ref>
From 15 February to 3 October 2022, TVP3 Warsaw was available in HD quality on a test multiplex broadcast in the DVB-T2/HEVC standard.<ref name=":15" /><ref name=":14" />

On 6 September 2013, TVP Regionalna (only the TVP Warsaw edition) joined Polsat Box as a new channel,<ref name=":7" /> and on 9 September it was also added to nc+, ''Telewizja na kartę'', and Orange TV<ref name=":8" /> (TVP Info, in its new format, remained available on these platforms). On 2 January 2016, TVP3 replaced TVP Regionalna. On 20 November 2023, satellite transmission was upgraded to HD quality, along with the channel TVP Seriale.<ref name=":16" /><ref name=":17" />
Currently, the station (again, only TVP3 Warsaw) is available exclusively via the Hot Bird satellite on digital platform transponders.
=== Internet === Since 25 February 2013, all regional TVP channels have been available free of charge online through the TVP Stream website and app.<ref>{{Cite web |date=22 February 2013 |title=Programy OTV, TVP INFO i TVP Parlament dostępne online |url=https://sat-charts.eu/artykul,1588,Programy-OTV--TVP-INFO-i-TVP-Parlament-dostepne-online.html |access-date=23 October 2025 |website=sat-charts.eu}}</ref>
