The FIFA World Cup 2026 runs from June 11 to July 19, 2026, and is co-hosted by the United States, Canada, and Mexico. It is the largest World Cup ever, and matches will be broadcast around the world across television and streaming platforms. Below is a guide to where you can watch, organized by region.
Broadcast rights vary by country and can change. Always check your local official listings for the most up-to-date channel and streaming information before kickoff.
In the United States, coverage is split by language. English-language broadcasts air on FOX and FS1, while Spanish-language coverage is carried by Telemundo, with streaming available through Peacock.
In the United Kingdom, the World Cup is shown free-to-air, with matches shared between the BBC and ITV. Coverage is also available to stream through BBC iPlayer and ITVX.
In Canada, broadcast rights are held by Bell Media, with matches shown across TSN and CTV in English and RDS in French.
In Australia, Optus Sport is the primary home of comprehensive World Cup coverage, while SBS broadcasts a selection of matches free-to-air, including key fixtures and the final.
Outside these regions, the World Cup is carried by national broadcasters and regional rights holders in nearly every country, often through a mix of free-to-air channels and subscription streaming services. Many broadcasters offer companion apps and websites that let you stream matches live on phones, tablets, smart TVs, and computers.
To stream matches, identify your local rights holder and use its official app or website. Most services support smart TVs, streaming devices, mobile apps, and web browsers. A stable internet connection is recommended for live matches, and some platforms may require a subscription or a valid TV provider login.
We will keep our match pages updated with kickoff times throughout the tournament, but for the definitive channel in your country, always confirm with your local official listings.
