Lifestyle (formerly known as The LifeStyle Channel) is an Australian television channel. The channel launched on 1 September 1997.[1] The channel has an emphasis on contemporary lifestyle interests. Its programming covers topics including food and wine, home and garden, real estate, shopping, leisure, travel and real life drama. Every Friday, articles, videos, etc., are published with new content and information regarded these topics.[2]
Lifestyle has three subsidiary channels: Lifestyle Food, a channel dedicated to food and cooking, Lifestyle Home which is dedicated to DIY and garden advice, and Fox Arena which is dedicated to reality television and pop culture programming.[3] Lifestyle also broadcasts other programs ranging from food, wine, home design, gardening, leisure, travel, and real life drama[4]
