Sky Free Limited is a subsidiary of Sky Network Television that operates six national free-to-air television channels and the ad-supported streaming television service, ThreeNow in New Zealand.

The subsidiary company was formed in 2013 as MediaWorks TV Limited, a division of MediaWorks New Zealand and successor to TVWorks (1990–2013).

In 2019, MediaWorks announced that they were selling their television operations. In September 2020, Discovery, Inc. purchased MediaWorks TV with the acquisition being finalised on 1 December 2020. The subsidiary was subsequently rebranded as Discovery New Zealand, and the company was renamed to Discovery NZ Limited. In late July 2025, Warner Bros. Discovery announced it would exit New Zealand and sell its assets to Sky TV, effective 1 August 2025. Sky TV also confirmed that Discovery NZ would be rebranded as Sky Free for trademarking reasons.
