Gb News, the new UK news channel backed by Discovery, will launch on June 13.
The network, which is chaired by former BBC presenter Andrew Neil, will go live at 8Pm local time with a show welcoming audiences to the new service.
Gb News has spent recent months staffing up and building its London studio. The channel is making a lot of noise in the UK, with its promise to offer an alternative to the BBC and Sky News, and signing up journalists including former BBC presenter Simon McCoy and Dan Wootton, who used to work as the executive editor of The Sun.
The channel will go live on Freeview channel 236, meaning it is below Rt and Aljazeera in the television guide. Other presenters include Neil himself, who will host his own show, and Alastair Stewart, a former ITV News anchor.

American 'shock jock' Alex Jones launched into a rant on live television this morning (June 9).
The Us broadcaster - known for his conspiracy theories and support of gun ownership - appeared on the BBC's Sunday Politics show to discuss the recent meeting of Bilderberg group members.
Jones stated his belief that the group of business leaders, politicians and policy makers is actually a firm that secretly governs the world.
He explained to host Andrew Neil that the creation of the euro was a "Nazi German plan", and that "Bilderberg is heavily involved in the EU plan" and "it is a Nazi plan".
"We have forced them from cover to admit they're puppeteers above the major parties," he added.
Guest David Aaronovitch, who has written about conspiracy theorists like Jones, queried: "[If the group are so powerful] why are you still alive?"
However, Jones insisted that he had received calls threatening "to cut [his] head off" after speaking about a previous Bilderberg meeting.
