How to Watch the 2026 Winter Olympics
NBCUniversal holds the exclusive U.S. broadcast rights for the 2026 Winter Olympics. Coverage is split across four channels and one streaming platform:
- NBC — Primetime coverage of marquee events like figure skating, alpine skiing, and ice hockey. Also carries the Opening and Closing Ceremonies.
- Peacock — Live streaming of every single event, including sports that don't air on traditional TV. The only way to watch everything.
- USA Network — Daytime and afternoon live coverage, particularly for curling, biathlon, cross-country skiing, and early-round hockey games.
- CNBC — Carries overflow live events when USA Network and NBC are both occupied, typically speed skating and freestyle skiing.
Since Milano Cortina is 6 hours ahead of Eastern Time, many events air in the early morning U.S. hours. Peacock will stream replays of everything, and NBC's primetime show packages the day's highlights each evening. Use the sport-specific schedule pages below to filter events by your timezone.

"Before Carly, I relied on a Calendly link, but the whole process felt impersonal and not very professional. Carly changed that by handling all the back-and-forth, so I'm no longer stuck in endless email threads trying to line up schedules.
Now Carly reaches out to candidates, shares my real-time availability, lets them pick a slot, then sends a Zoom link and drops it straight into my calendar. She sends reminders to both of us before each call, which has significantly reduced no-shows and last-minute confusion.
On top of scheduling, Carly acts like a full executive assistant, sending me my schedule the night before so I can prepare for each call. It reminds me of the old x.ai assistant, but Carly is noticeably smarter, faster, and better suited to my healthcare recruitment business."
