Sky Multiroom in detail
What is Sky Multiroom?
Sky Multiroom lets you enjoy your Sky TV channels in another room, so different family members can watch the shows they love at the same time.
How does it work?
By connecting additional boxes to your Sky dish, you’re able to watch different Sky TV channels in different rooms at the same time.
What can I watch?
Your Sky Multiroom service mirrors your main subscription. You can watch channels that are part of your subscription package, and record them if you have a Sky+ or Sky+HD box. Those programmes you purchase individually, such as Sky Box Office movies, sports matches and events, are only able to be viewed on the box they were booked on and will be billed individually.
You will also need:
- A Sky TV subscription
- A Sky+ box
- An additional box for each room you want to watch Sky Multiroom in
