9Rush is an Australian free-to-air digital television multichannel, launched by the Nine Network on 5 April 2020.[1] The channel launched as a joint venture with Warner Bros. Discovery Asia-Pacific (which also supplied its programming) and is broadcast on Channel 96 across Nine's metropolitan markets. However, by August 2025, WBD sold its stake in the joint venture following its sale of Three in New Zealand the previous month.[2] The target audience are males between the ages of 25 and 54.[3]
In March 2022, Discovery launched the similarly-named Rush channel in New Zealand, which shares some programming with 9Rush.
