Kayo Sports has rolled out a hefty sports slate at the Foxtel Media Upfront, doubling down on its claim to be “Australia’s home of sport”.
Foxtel CEO Patrick Delany said Kayo’s depth of offering and production set it apart globally.
“We are Australia’s home of sport, bringing together an extensive breadth and depth of tier-one sports with world-class live game and show production with no ad breaks in play and 4K coverage,” he said.
“This powerful combination is further enhanced by Fox Sports News, our dedicated sports news channel and foxsports.com.au, the leading sports news portal, creating a sports experience that is truly unmatched anywhere in the world.”
The streaming platform will continue to show every game of every round of the AFL and NRL live and ad-break free during play, alongside all Formula 1, MotoGP, Supercars and major cricket matches this summer, including the India and England men’s tours, The Ashes, BBL and WBBL.
Kayo also confirmed it remains the home of golf following new partnerships with The Open Championship, the DP World Tour, PGA Tour of Australasia and the WPGA.
The move secures exclusive coverage of all four majors and major domestic events like the Australian Open and BMW Australian PGA Championship.
On the motorsport front, a multi-year deal with Supercars will deliver a wider Championship Season from 2026. Every Formula 1, MotoGP and World Superbike race remains live.
Cricket-heavy summers are also locked in. This October, Kayo will stream a white-ball series between Australia and India, followed by The Ashes from November.
The 2026-27 season will see England and New Zealand tour, with full coverage of the Australian women's series against India, the BBL and WBBL.
Fox Footy’s Super Saturday LIVE will return in 2026 for at least eight rounds of AFL on Saturdays, while Fox League will carry the full NRL season including the Rugby League Las Vegas Festival and Magic Round.
Kayo’s long-term deal with ESPN continues, bringing US sports fans access to NBA, NFL, MLB, NHL, WNBA, and domestic NBL and WNBL games.
Also included: every match of the Suncorp Super Netball, AFLW, NRLW, UFC pay-per-views, Main Event boxing, and thoroughbred racing from VIC, SA and WA via Racing.com.
“We are the place to watch Australia’s biggest sports live, every game of every round of AFL and NRL, every Formula 1, Supercars and MotoGP race, all four Golf majors, and every major cricket event on home soil this summer,” Delany said.
“Add to that over 50 of the most popular sports from around the world and Kayo Sports’’ line-up is unparalleled.”
