History

Originally, the channel launched on 27 April 1996 as "Canal+ Jaune" on CanalSatellite and on cable as a multi-broadcast programme service. Its programmes consisted of a multicast of Canal+ films.

On 28 June 2002, Canal+ Jaune applied to the CSA to obtain a frequency on TNT.

As part of the creation of the Canal+ "Bouquet", the channel changed its name on 1 November 2003 to Canal+ Cinéma. The application was approved and the CSA assigned a frequency on the multiplex R3 DTT from where it begins to be issued as early as 21 November 2005.

Since 12 October 2010, the channel had begun broadcasting their programs in high definition (HD) with Canal+ Cinéma launching an HD version of the channel.
