Its programming consists of reruns of TV shows and news bulletins from Al Aoula and 2M.[3] Al Maghribiya was created around the concept of the French TV channel TV5Monde and is focused towards the Moroccan diaspora living in other countries.[4]
In January 2014, Abdessamad Bencherif announced its intention to make Al Maghribiya an international news channel with the purpose of "countering misinformation from Morocco's rivals and enemies of its interests."[5]
The channel started broadcasting in high-definition on 20 November 2017.
