Aura (Wales)

Aura is a Welsh television channel that launched in 1996 as Disneytoon. It was later relaunched as Disney Channel on March 1st, 2014 and as GorgeTV two years later, and as GTV in July 2017. On the same day that the American GTV was relaunched as Toonami Channel, GTV Wales was relaunched back into Disney Channel.
In April 2018, Disney XD began moving most of its first-run programming to Disney Channel; subsequently, Disney Channel started rerunning programming formerly seen on Disneytoon and Jetix.
As with Disney XD Wales, Disney Channel Wales is currently sorted under "Entertainment", and thus not subject to certain Ofcom regulations. In January 2019, Disney at Night ceased operations, giving its timeslot back to Disney Channel Wales. Whether or not Disney Channel Wales will move to the "Children's" category on cable providers has yet to be seen.
On June 9th, 2019, Curiousgorge66 Studios shuffled the channel, Disney XD, and Cartoon Network to Aura International due to the Aura split from Curiousgorge66 Studios.
In November 2019, the channel, alongside its sister channels, was selected among six international networks to have a livestream simulcast in the United States courtesy of Flare+. Due to rights issues for English-language broadcast rights, only the Welsh feed would be provided. NickFamily Stream will carry the livestream from December 2019 until its shutdown in April 2020.
On May 21st, 2020, Aura International stated that the network may rebrand as Aura in the spring of 2021, due to the launch of Disney+ and the closure of Jetix Cymru/opening of Aura Television Productions UK. This relaunch date was pushed forward to September 1st, 2020 by mid-June 2020.
