VTV6 was originally mentioned for the first time in the development plan of Vietnam Television in the period 2006 - 2010 with the original orientation to be a specialized channel for sports. It was launched in 2007. In 2008, VTV6 Youth Center was officially renamed as VTV6 Youth Department.

It was not until April 29, 2009, that the channel was broadcast in the South, then officially broadcast nationwide on September 7, 2010. At the same time, VTV6 also improved the quality of content and increase the broadcast time from 12/24h daily (12:00-24:00 daily) to 18/24h daily (06:00-24:00 daily) from November 1, 2010.
