Where to watch sport on TV, country by country

Sport is found in the TV listings themselves: every match, race and fight that a guide lists, joined to its fixture where we can, with every channel showing it and whether each showing is live or a repeat. Pick a sport or a country to narrow it down.

The same events come from the API with GET /v1/events, filtered by sport, competition and country. Bars, hotels, betting and fan apps use it to answer the one question fans ask most: where can I watch this tonight?

Events dataFor venuesWhere to watch toolEvents endpoint

Who uses it

Bars and venuesTonight's live sport on the channels you subscribe to, live first.
Fan and team appsWhere a team's next match is on TV in each country.
Betting and odds sitesPut the broadcaster next to every fixture you price.
PublishersDaily "football on TV today" lists, built and kept up to date for you.

Questions

How do you tell live sport from repeats?

Each showing is checked against the event's start time and the guide's own live flags, so a replay or highlights show is marked as a repeat.

Which sports are covered?

Every sport that a TV guide lists: football, cricket, basketball, rugby, tennis, motor racing, combat sports and many more.

Can I filter by country?

Yes. Choose a country above, or pass country=GB (any ISO code) to the API to see only that country's channels.

How far ahead are events listed?

As far ahead as the guides run, usually two to seven days, longer for big competitions.
