Watch the Olympics swimming 2024 live: streaming options from any location

Paris, 2024 is set to host an exciting Olympics Swimming event, running from Saturday, July 27 to Sunday, August 4. Here's a comprehensive guide on how to watch the final four medal-winning races, including the Men's 1500m Freestyle Final on Sunday, August 4, at 17:37 local time.

In the US

For American viewers, the Olympics Swimming event can be watched on Peacock. If you're a cord-cutter, Sling, a smart TV service, offers cable channels without a subscription. With the Sling Blue package, which costs $40 per month ($20 for the first month), you can access USA Network and E!.

In Australia

Channel 9 and its 9Now streaming service offer comprehensive free-to-air Paris 2024 coverage.

Watching from Abroad

If you're traveling abroad during the Olympics, a VPN (Virtual Private Network) like NordVPN can help bypass geo-blocking restrictions to watch streaming services as if you were in your home country. Here's a step-by-step guide on how to use a VPN:

  1. Choose a reliable VPN service, such as NordVPN or Surfshark.
  2. Install the VPN app or software on your streaming device.
  3. Connect to a server in the country whose official broadcast you want to access.
  4. Access the broadcaster's streaming platform.
  5. Stream the swimming events live.

Remember, creating an account on the broadcaster’s site might be necessary, sometimes requiring a local email or subscription. If one server location is blocked or slow, switch VPN server locations within the country to improve access and speed. Use VPNs with fast speeds and strong security to avoid buffering or connection issues during live sports.

In Canada

Olympics coverage is available nearly free on CBC and the CBC Gem streaming service, with the option to pay $5.99 per month for CBC's Premium service to ditch ads.

In the UK

The BBC offers free-to-air Olympics coverage, but only two live streams at any time, and viewers need a valid TV Licence to tune in. Subscription services Eurosport and Discovery Plus provide more comprehensive coverage.

Elsewhere

In addition to the US and Australia, the Olympics Swimming event can be watched on Discovery Plus in the UK. Stan, a subscription service in Australia, is also covering Paris 2024 and can be added to a Stan subscription for $15 per month. Free live streams of the Olympics Swimming event are available on BBC iPlayer (UK), 9Now (Australia), and CBC Gem (Canada).

Don't miss out on the thrilling Men's 1500m Freestyle Final and other exciting races! With these streaming options, you can enjoy the Olympics Swimming event from anywhere. Happy watching!
