Important Notes

TF1 holds premium rights and will broadcast all France matches plus the final free-to-air — continuing French tradition where national team games are cultural events protected by law from paywalls.

France Télévisions will cover the majority of non-France group matches and knockouts free via France 2 and France 3.

CEST (UTC+2) timing is ideal: matches in the Americas start between 6 PM and 2 AM — French café terraces and public squares will be packed for the evening kickoffs.

MyTF1 and France.tv provide free streaming in HD, while Molotov TV aggregates all channels in one app — the most convenient way to watch on mobile.

As defending 2018 champions and 2022 finalists, Les Bleus command massive viewership — the 2026 campaign will be one of the most-watched events in French television history.
