The Seven Network (commonly known as Channel Seven or simply Seven) is an Australian television network owned by the Seven Media Group. It dates back to 4 November 1956, when the first stations on the VHF7 frequency were established in Melbourne and Sydney. It is currently the second largest network in the country in terms of population reach. Seven is currently the highest rating television network in Australia, ahead of its traditional rival the Nine Network, and constant third place holder Network Ten.
Seven's administration headquarters are based in a converted warehouse at Jones Bay Wharf in Pyrmont, Sydney. National news and current affairs programming is based at studios in Martin Place. In 2009, Seven moved its Epping-based production operations to a purpose-built high-definition television production facility at the Australian Technology Park in Eveleigh. The majority of content is broadcast out of the network's digital Broadcast Centre in the Melbourne Docklands.
