Blue Ocean Entertainment has acquired a license for the publication rights of a magazine inspired by Mondo TV’s Sissi, the Young Empress series.

The license for the Sissi, the Young Empress magazine covers Germany, Austria and Switzerland. The publication is slated to launch in the aforementioned German-speaking countries in September 2019. Active Merchandising is leading the regional licensing campaign.

Last year, Nickelodeon brought a German-language version of the first season of Sissi, the Young Empress to Germany, Austria and Switzerland in a five-year deal that commenced in September 2018. Nickelodeon has exclusive free-to-air and pay-TV rights in Germany, and non-exclusive free-to-air and pay-TV rights in Austria and Switzerland for the series. Its first season has also been showing on channels owned by the free-to-air Austrian national public service broadcaster ORF since 2017.
