Netflix has acquired the exclusive broadcasting rights for the 2030 FIFA World Cup in Spain and Andorra. This marks the first time the streaming platform will broadcast the traditional FIFA World Cup tournament. The agreement covers all 104 matches of the event.
Viewers in Spain and Andorra will have access to the full tournament. To comply with local regulations, Netflix will make one match per day available for free through unnamed national broadcasters. This free access includes all games involving Spain, as a host country, along with both semi-finals and the final. The remaining matches will require a Netflix subscription.
Beyond the live matches, Netflix plans to air pre-game, halftime, and post-game shows, as well as a daily round-up program on match days. This initiative follows Netflix's previous acquisition of US broadcast rights for the 2027 and 2031 Women's World Cup tournaments, indicating a broader strategy to incorporate live sports content.
