There are still plenty of Olympic Games to come, hours and hours of sports entertainment to watch on TV. And you don’t need to pay for a premium platform: there are ways to watch the Games almost in their entirety free and legal. You just need to have a good list of free channels from around the world.
It’s no surprise that the Olympics are the star of the news: no matter what time you turn on the TV, you’re sure to see sports-related news, medals, and even trivia about the Olympics. Now, following all the disciplines 100% is only possible with options like Max with its integrated Eurosport. Without stopping you from zapping the networks of the rest of the world, many of which also broadcast the Games.
The key to seeing all the Olympic Games: world zapping
The Olympics on BBC iPlayer
Each country has its own rights to broadcast the different Olympic broadcasts. In the case of Europe, it is RTVE that is responsible for offering live, delayed and summaries of everything that happens in the disciplines. where Spanish athletes participate. This covers a wide range, but leaves out a notable portion of Olympic entertainment.
The only way to have access to all the events is to have Max: the platform offers the Olympics via Eurosport. The experience is of remarkable quality, Max allows you to select any live discipline with a single press and the playback quality is in 4K. Now, you have to pay at least the first month: 9.99 dollars for the standard package (in 1080p).
Even though 10 dollars to watch all that remains of the Olympic Games is not expensive, it is not what we are looking for either. And if there is the possibility of accessing free broadcasts, why not take advantage of what global zapping offers us? The Paris Olympics website itself offers a complete list with all TVs that have broadcasting rights, country by country.
A good part of the links are to TV channels from another country that broadcast in free-to-air. Sometimes you need a VPN, other times you need to register on the channel’s platform. For example, Claro Sports, from Argentina, broadcasts different daily events, although it requires an IP from the country: if you have a VPN, you will not have any problems. The same with BBC iPlayer, from the United Kingdom (here you need to create a user account).
