Télépro is a weekly French-language magazine published in Belgium that gives programming schedules for 100 Belgian and foreign television channels broadcast in the country.

History
Télépro was created by two students in 1954 as a non-profit organization. They started with mimeographs before printing a few hundred copies of the magazine. Its successful diffusion began in the 1970's as well as the development of cable operators in Belgium.

Since 1994, Télépro has been published by Belgomedia, a public limited company 50% of which is owned by the French publisher Bayard Presse and the other 50% by the Belgian publisher Roularta.

Description
Télépro is a weekly mainstream and family television magazine with an editorial line designed to be directed at all and not to offend any convictions. It contains a TV guide as well as a guide to practical life at home. It is the only Belgian TV magazine to "design" its programme schedules internally, from input to layout, while its competitors resort to agencies specialised in the supply of TV programmes.

The first part of the magazine is dedicated to the news of the week, TV appointments and "celebrity" sections. The second part is the TV guide and the third part is dedicated to the practical, leisure and wellness sections.

Télépro also has an internet presence.

Télépro produces special editions: "Détente JEUX" (twice a year), "Délices CUISINE" (twice a year) and "Destins de STAR" (twice a year) as well as cultural products (DVDs, CDs, books, etc.).

Circulation
In 2011, the paid circulation was 135,229 copies, 70% of which was mailed to subscribers.

Télépro is the second largest weekly magazine in French-speaking Belgium in terms of paid circulation. The magazine had 438,200 readers in 2010-2011, and a family readership, mostly Francophone.

33% of the circulation is in the province of Liège, 17.8% in Brussels and Walloon Brabant, 24% in the province of Hainaut, 12% in the province of Namur, 9% in the province of Luxembourg and the remaining 4.2% in Flanders.
