Canal Sur 2 is the second public television channel from Radio y Televisión de Andalucía (RTVA).
It began broadcasting on 5 June 1998, under the name Canal 2 Andalucía.
With the launch of Canal 2 Andalucía, RTVA had to split its television broadcasts to two channels, leaving Canal Sur as a general entertainment and news channel, while Canal 2 Andalucía focuses on cultural, informative, sport and children's programmes.
From October 2012, the channel is to cease broadcasting original material, and will instead be broadcasting the same programmes as Canal Sur.
