NEW YORK, NY \u2014 July 14, 2026 \u2014 (NOTICIAS NEWSWIRE<\/a>) \u2014 As the FIFA World Cup 2026\u2122 enters its final phase, HITN MEDIA, the nation\u2019s leading Spanish-language public television network serving Hispanic audiences, is celebrating the successful transformation of its iconic Brooklyn Navy Yard rooftop into the New York broadcast headquarters for New World TV\u2018s summer soccer coverage.<\/p>\n

PGS Group of France, a leading international media services company specializing in broadcast operations and content distribution, is managing the production, which has transformed HITN\u2019s waterfront studios into a world-class international broadcast center delivering FIFA World Cup 2026\u2122 coverage to more than 90 million viewers across Sub-Saharan Africa.<\/p>\n

After evaluating multiple New York City locations, New World TV, a Pan-African broadcaster transmitting the tournament across the continent, selected HITN\u2018s 23,000-square-foot rooftop terrace for its unparalleled Manhattan skyline views and the technical infrastructure required to support a complex, large-scale live broadcast operation.<\/p>\n

Over the past several weeks, approximately 40 international broadcast professionals have operated from Brooklyn, producing live programming from infrastructure that houses presentation studios, production offices, and a technical operation hub, supported by HITN Media\u2019s state-of-the-art facilities providing connectivity, power distribution, technical production services, and transmission support.<\/p>\n

Project management for HITN Media has been led by Juan Pablo Santos of Wood Creek Road Productions, coordinating the operational, production, vendor, and partner needs required to support the successful execution of the international broadcast hub.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs the tournament reaches its conclusion, this project has demonstrated the extraordinary capabilities of HITN Media\u2019s Brooklyn studios as a premier destination for international media production,\u201d said Michael D. Nieves, President and CEO of HITN. \u201cOur facilities combine a distinctive New York setting with the technology, connectivity, and operational expertise required by global broadcasters. We are proud of what our teams and partners have accomplished together, bringing New York\u2019s energy and skyline to millions of viewers around the world during one of the most celebrated sporting events on the planet.\u201d<\/p>\n

The rooftop facility offers a unique combination of expansive outdoor production space, unobstructed skyline views, high-capacity fiber connectivity, technical support areas, offices, makeup and green rooms, secure access, and proximity to Manhattan.<\/p>\n

\u201cNew York City is one of the world\u2019s great stages, and for a tournament of this magnitude we wanted a location that reflected the energy, ambition, and global reach of our coverage,\u201d said Aboubakar Coulibaly, CEO of New World Televisions Group. \u201cHITN Media\u2019s rooftop provided the ideal combination of visual impact and broadcast capabilities, allowing us to deliver a uniquely New York experience to audiences across Africa.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThis project demonstrates what can be achieved when world-class facilities are combined with international broadcast expertise,\u201d said Micha\u00ebl Viviani, CEO of PGS Group. \u201cTogether with HITN Media and New World Sport, PGS designed, integrated, and delivered a complete international broadcast hub within just a few weeks, managing the technical architecture, production systems, transmission, distribution, staffing, and daily broadcast operations. The result has enabled live FIFA World Cup coverage across Sub-Saharan Africa while showcasing New York as a global broadcast destination.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cPGS has delivered broadcast and media services worldwide, but few locations offer the combination of iconic visuals and operational readiness found at HITN Media\u2019s Brooklyn campus,\u201d said Micha\u00ebl Viviani, CEO of PGS Group. \u201cFrom our first visit, it was clear that HITN Media provided the ideal environment to establish a world-class production center on an accelerated timeline. The success of this operation has validated that decision.\u201d<\/p>\n

The successful execution of this international broadcast reinforces HITN Media\u2019s Brooklyn Navy Yard campus as one of New York City\u2019s premier destinations for live television, major sporting events, and large-scale international productions. The World Cup project showcases the campus\u2019 ability to host complex global broadcasts on an accelerated timeline while serving audiences across multiple continents.<\/p>\n
