In the United States, all 104 matches of the tournament will be broadcast across Fox Sports platforms. Seventy games will be televised on the main Fox network, while thirty-four fixtures will air on FS1. Spanish-language broadcasts will be available through NBC Universal’s Telemundo network throughout the event.

Fans in Australia can stream every one of the 104 matches via SBS On Demand, while selected top games will also be televised on SBS and SBS Viceland. In New Zealand, viewers can follow the All Whites and other key fixtures for free on TVNZ and TVNZ+, with all matches available through the TVNZ+ Event Pass.

In South Africa, the public broadcaster SABC will lead the 2026 World Cup coverage, airing matches across its various channels as well as through the SABC Plus streaming service.

Across France, beIN Sports will broadcast all 104 matches on its subscription channels, while 54 matches will also air free-to-air on the commercial network M6.

In Spain, fans can watch World Cup 2026 matches for free on RTVE, while DAZN, under an agreement with Mediapro, will stream all 104 games as part of a paid package.
