RIVERSIDE, California, May 16, 2024: Off-Road Travel TV, an all-new original television series focused on the world of off-road and overland travel, is set to begin airing January 2025 on MAVTV, the world’s premier media platform for passion-fueled motorsports, powersports and automotive programming. The series will feature a wide variety of visually compelling content that encourages people to get out and explore the natural wonders of our amazing planet.
“We are excited to partner with MAVTV, the fastest growing motorsports network in the USA” said Mark Mitchell, CEO and co-founder of Off-Road Travel TV. “We look forward to providing the MAVTV audience with an all-encompassing and immersive look at this exciting lifestyle and bringing them along for the ride as we travel all over the country and beyond to capture the challenges, the excitement and the beauty of off-road travel!”
Off-Road Travel TV will be the first weekly 30-minute magazine-style show on a national cable and satellite television channel aimed squarely at the off-road and overland audience and lifestyle, both on two wheels and four. The program will deliver regular high-quality features on off-road vehicle builds, in depth evaluations of new and existing products, informative how to articles, valuable camping tips and tricks and of course off-road travel to both iconic and popular off-road destinations and to spectacular new locations discovered along the way.
“With the growing popularity of off-road and overland travel, Off-Road Travel TV is a natural fit for the network” said Scott McLemore, Director of Programming and Production for MAVTV. “This program provides us with a unique look at the lifestyle side of off-road and is a perfect complement to the growing slate of off-road racing and motorsports content on MAVTV. We can see an obvious crossover appeal as most fans of off-road racing are also passionate enthusiasts themselves and regularly go off-roading with family and friends.”
Off-Road Travel TV has assembled a highly knowledgeable crew of experienced staff and contributors to provide the highest level of editorial coverage possible. Off-Road Travel TV has also partnered with a few carefully selected media partners to work closely together on content ideas, marketing partnerships and promotional opportunities.
“This show is created by enthusiasts, for enthusiasts, and it’s about as genuine as it gets,” said Ken Faught, President, and co-founder of Off-Road Travel TV. “I have been lucky enough to go on off-road excursions in Australia, New Zealand, Costa Rica, Peru, Zimbabwe, Botswana, Canada, Mexico, Europe, and all over the United States, and the experience you get it simply amazing. I believe travel is the best thing you can do in life.”
In addition to the television series, the agreement with MAVTV will also see the companies working together on a variety of cohesive marketing and promotional efforts, sponsorship sales and coordinated social media that will be beneficial for both the program and the network, along with partnering with OVR magazine (www.OVRmag.com) and Offroad Underground (www.OffroadUnderground.com)
