With an incredibly difficult year to date, and an uncertain future, South Africans need escapism more than ever before and SABC 3 has world-class, quality entertainment to assist our viewers in taking a much-needed break from reality.
The campaign objective is to give our audience mini-breaks away from their reality – with the end goal of driving them to enjoy longer breaks in front of their TV screens with quality SABC 3 content. The focal point of our escapism is our world-class shows such as Trending SA, Expresso, Afternoon Express, The Insider, The Good Doctor, The Oath, to name but just a few.

The campaign will integrate the channel’s own talent including Mablerh, Refilwe, Elma (Trending SA), Graeme (Expresso), and Palesa (Afternoon Express). These influencers will drive in building hype during the launch by featuring SABC 3’s campaign message “Escape the norm with SABC 3. #EscapeWithS3”.
“Being empathetic towards our viewers was at the center in the creation of this campaign. Whilst society has accepted our new post-COVID-19 reality norms; the SABC 3 brand identified the need to escape it all and find comfort in escapism through our content. The SABC 3 team has worked hard to ensure that the content offered lives up to the proposition of escaping the norm and we are excited to give our viewers the escapism that our viewers have been yearning for,” commented Dichaba Phalatse, SABC TV Network Marketing Manager.
