Ready, ready, ready! The Paris 2024 Summer Olympics are just around the corner, with the opening ceremony set to begin on Friday, July 26, and the 17-day event will be held.
For the first time in history, the opening ceremony was held outside an indoor stadium, instead a moving parade along the city's famous River Seine. With the river and the Eiffel Tower as a backdrop, the event was a dazzling affair, with Celine Dion performing and Lady Gaga taking the stage.
Want to watch the Summer Olympics on TV and online? There are plenty of ways to follow the Paris 2024 Olympics, which will be broadcast live on NBC, USA Network, E!, CNBC, and the GOLF Channel. NBC will be the go-to place for all Olympic coverage, with NBC’s Peacock streaming service serving as the official broadcast home in the United States, airing all sports and all 329 medal events.
If you don't have cable, there are other ways to stream the Paris 2024 Summer Olympics live through any live TV streaming service that carries NBC. DirecTV, Sling TV, Fubo TV, and Hulu + Live TV all have access to NBC — and they're all currently offering free trials ahead of the Games.
All of the live streaming services let you stream NBC live on your phone, laptop, tablet, or smart TV. Fubo’s free trial includes a free DVR, so you can record your favorite events and watch replays on demand. Use the bundled free trials to stream the Olympics live online for free, no cable required.
However, Peacock (which is currently offering a limited-time promotion on its annual deals) is the best place to stream the Paris 2024 Summer Olympics. NBC’s streaming service will not only broadcast every competition live, but will also offer exclusive special coverage like “Primetime in Paris,” hosted by Mike Tirico from Paris’s iconic Trocadero; “Gold Zone,” featuring “the best and most compelling moments” throughout the day; and “Watch With Alex Cooper,” starring the podcast host and rotating special guests as they watch the games live.
You can subscribe to Peacock for $7.99 per month or save money by subscribing to their annual plan for $79.99 — this gives you 12 months of Peacock for the price of 10 months.
