Nickelodeon Schweiz is a Swiss German-language pay television channel centred towards children. It was launched on 1 April 2009 timesharing with VIVA Switzerland, replacing the German feed that was available in Switzerland.[1] The programming schedule is the same as Nickelodeon Germany feed, with commercial breaks from the country being replaced by local ads.
In March 2010, Nick was rebranded. From 1 January 2011 until 30 September 2014, Nickelodeon Switzerland timeshared with Comedy Central.
Before Nickelodeon Switzerland was launched as a TV channel it was a 7-hour programming block on the Swiss channel SF2 which used to broadcast from 28 September 1998 [citation needed]-16 September 2003 after the shutdown of the German channel on 31 May 1998. It was replaced by another programming block called Junior.

Since 1 October 2021, the channel has been run by CH Media under license from Paramount, timesharing with the new channel 7+ Family.[2][3]
The channel was rebranded back to Nickelodeon on 23 August 2023.
