DAZN, the world’s leading sports entertainment platform, and the National Football League are set to deliver a landmark 2026 NFL season with NFL Game Pass, available only on DAZN in more than 200 markets worldwide. As the home of NFL Game Pass globally (outside of the US and China), DAZN continues to enhance the viewing experience for fans, making the sport more accessible and easier to watch than ever before.
NFL Game Pass subscribers can watch every NFL game live throughout the season including the International Games, the Playoffs, and Super Bowl LXI alongside NFL RedZone, NFL Network, original programming, and documentaries. Subscribers will also receive access to exclusive games every week as well as select games free-to-view across multiple markets. For the 2026 season, DAZN is significantly expanding localized coverage to help more fans enjoy the game in their local language. For the first time, every NFL game will be available with French commentary, representing a major enhancement for French-speaking audiences worldwide. German-speaking fans will also benefit from a substantial increase in coverage with more than 75% of games available with German commentary. In addition, every NFL game will continue to be available with Spanish and Portuguese commentary, ensuring comprehensive access for fans across major international markets with a growing NFL fanbase. Alongside expanded language offerings, NFL Game Pass on DAZN continues to give fans unmatched flexibility in how they watch the sport. The popular Game In 40 programme allows fans to watch condensed versions with highlights of every game in around 40 minutes while Sunday In 60 provides a comprehensive one-hour recap of every Sunday game. Together, this on-demand content ensures supporters across all time zones never miss the biggest moments. Fans can also enjoy full game replays, condensed and short highlights, and a wide range of NFL content throughout the season including the return of the X’s & O’s weekly NFL analysis show, the new QB POV series hosted by former NFL quarterback Chris Streveler breaking down each division from a quarterback’s perspective, and other formats created exclusively for NFL Game Pass on DAZN and available across most connected devices wherever and whenever fans choose to watch.
Meanwhile, subscribers to NFL Game Pass Ultimate on DAZN can enjoy a premium viewing experience designed for the most dedicated fans.

They also benefit from being able to watch every Thursday Night Football and Sunday Night Football game in High Dynamic Range (HDR) and Dolby surround sound, entry into international games ticket ballots, and a 15% discount voucher on official merchandise via NFLShop.com. DAZN Group CEO Shay Segev said, “During our long-standing partnership with the NFL, the NFL Game Pass on DAZN has continued to bring fans outside the US the most complete and flexible way to follow the NFL. This season, by significantly expanding localized commentary, combining an offering of every live game with action-packed on-demand content, and providing flexible subscription options with features that enhance the NFL experience, DAZN is making it easier than ever for fans around the world to enjoy the most popular US league on their terms.” “We’re delighted to be entering another NFL season with DAZN.

Meanwhile, DAZN will broadcast the Ballon d’Or™ on October 26, 2026 live from London, United Kingdom and free to fans around the world, bringing football’s most prestigious individual awards ceremony to a global audience. The awards ceremony, where the sport’s top players gather to discover who will lift the game’s most coveted and prestigious individual prize, has celebrated football’s finest talent since 1956. Awarded annually by the magazine France Football, it honours the players who have defined the season thanks to their individual performance, their track record, and their conduct off the field. Winners last year include Paris Saint-Germain and France forward Ousmane Dembélé who won the Men’s award and Spain and Barcelona midfielder Aitana Bonmatí who claimed the Women’s Ballon d’Or™ for a record third consecutive year. Alongside the live broadcast, DAZN will act as the event's Global Gold Sponsoring Partner in the “Sports Broadcast Services” and “Sports OTT Services” categories, increasing the group’s presence at one of football’s most recognised events. Fans can also expect dedicated content and coverage across DAZN’s channels in the build-up to the ceremony. Segev said, “The Ballon d’Or™ is one of the most iconic events in football and a celebration of the players who inspire fans around the world. We are delighted to welcome the Ballon d’Or™ back to DAZN and to make it available free to fans in 200 markets globally. As the global home of sport, fans come to DAZN for some of the biggest events and best viewing experiences, and the Ballon d’Or™ is a perfect addition to our comprehensive football portfolio. It’s a great example of how DAZN connect fans with the defining moments of the beautiful game.”
