UEFA Euro 2024 live stream: Can you watch the championship for free?

Add as a preferred source on Google

With each progressive match at Euro 2024, things only seem to get more captivating. We’ve already seen two thrilling quarterfinals, as Spain took down hosts Germany in extra time, while France ousted Portugal via penalties, and the action should continue to intensify as we get closer to the July 14 final in Berlin.

In the United States, all remaining Euro 2024 matches will be televised on Fox. Fortunately, if you don’t have cable, there are a lot of different ways you can watch a live stream of all the action for free or cheap:

Upcoming Euro 2024 matches

  • July 6: Quarterfinals, England vs Switzerland, 12:00 p.m. ET, Fox

Is there a free Euro 2024 live stream?

Originally, Fubo was the top option for watching a live stream of Euro 2024 because it had exclusive coverage of a few of the matches. Those matches are over now, though, meaning all you need to watch everything from here on out is Fox.

Fubo, of course, is still a perfectly great option. It’s just not the only option. You can watch a live stream of Fox (live in most markets) via Fubo (“Pro” channel package), YouTube TV (“Base Plan”) or DirecTV Stream (“Entertainment” plan or above). All three are intended to replace cable, so they’re pricey long-term options, but they all come with a free trial.

The Fubo free trial will get you seven days before having to pay anything, while YouTube TV and DirecTV Stream are each five. That means that any combination of two of them should get you through to the end of Euro 2024, allowing you to watch every single remaining match for free.

Watch the Euro 2024 Live Stream on Sling TV

If we aren’t counting free trials, the cheapest way to watch Euro 2024 matches in the United States is Sling TV.

The “Sling Blue” channel package includes Fox (live in select markets) . It’s only $40 per month, which is already cheaper than any other streaming service, but new subscribers can get their first month for a mere $20.

One very important note here, though, is that Fox is only available live in a very few number of markets, but if you happen to live in one of those areas and you want the cheapest way to watch all of the remaining matches, then this is the way to go.

Watch the Euro 2024 Live Stream from Abroad

A virtual private network, such as the highly recommended NordVPN, can hide your IP address/location and connect you to a digital server in the United States. So, even if you’re physically somewhere else in the world, it still looks like you’re in the US. This allows you to access any of the normally location-restricted streaming services we just covered and watch a live stream of Euro 2024 matches from abroad.

Netflix has spent years telling the entertainment industry that binge-worthy originals and a simple user experience were enough to stay ahead. That strategy helped make it the world's biggest streaming service. But according to a Wall Street Journal report, the company is increasingly concerned about a different metric: engagement.

While Netflix continues to post healthy profits and retains one of the lowest subscriber cancellation rates in the industry, executives are reportedly seeing early signs that people are spending less time watching content. That matters because engagement - not just subscriber numbers - has become one of the biggest indicators of whether customers will stick around, watch ads, and continue paying for the service.

Microdramas are booming, and Character.AI is turning it into a two-way obsession
Watch an AI microdrama, then interrogate the characters yourself
Character.AI AI Microdramas Featured

Microdramas have already conquered the tiny vertical screen. Character.AI wants to make the experience even more immersive. The chatbot platform has launched c.ai Series, a collection of original, mobile-first microdramas created by its in-house studio. Each show consists of bite-sized vertical episodes, although watching is only half the experience. Viewers can also chat directly with the characters afterwards, revisit moments from the story, explore relationships, or begin entirely new storylines.

It is the latest attempt to blend streaming with audience participation. Netflix recently took another route with Unhinged, a horror game that turns a viewer’s phone into a controller and allows them to call during gameplay. Meanwhile, Character.AI is bringing interactivity into the fiction itself by keeping its characters available long after an episode ends.
