IB3 began test transmissions on 1 March 2005—the holiday known as "Balearic Islands Day"—with the first regular broadcast beginning on 5 September 2005.[1]
It is owned by the Ens Públic de Radiotelevisió de les Illes Balears and Federación de Organismos de Radio y Televisión Autonómicos (FORTA). The studios are located in Calvià, a municipality of the island of Mallorca, near Palma.
Initially, the channel's transmissions were in Catalan (informative and children's programming) and Castilian (films, series and documentaries).[2] Currently, the channel airs all its programming in Catalan only.
