Fubo and sports streamer DAZN have reached a multi-year agreement to distribute each other’s content and channels in Canada, building on an earlier deal that involved similar sports rights in the United States.
Under the deal, DAZN will distribute the streaming sports channel Fubo Sports Network and Fubo will carry DAZN’s premium live sports programming, including exclusive top-tier events, the companies said on Monday.
The partnership allows DAZN subscribers in Canada to bundle Fubo Sports Network with their DAZN subscription, bringing together a broad slate of live sports in one destination. Programming includes UEFA Champions League, UEFA Europa League, English Premier League, Serie A and major boxing events. New bundled plans will be announced in the coming weeks.
On the other side, Fubo subscribers will be able to add DAZN as either a standalone product or as part of a bundle with Fubo’s existing plans. The streamer already carries every Premier League and Serie A match in Canada, with some matches available exclusively in 4K, along with Premier League TV and thousands of additional soccer games from around the world. Its Canadian plans also include coverage of MLB, NBA, NHL, cricket’s IPL and more than 100 live sports, news and entertainment channels.
As part of the tie-up, a boxing channel called DAZN Ringside will also be offered at no extra cost across all of Fubo’s Canadian subscription packages.
DAZN holds exclusive Canadian rights to NFL Game Pass, including RedZone, as well as LIV Golf, Bundesliga, WTA tennis, and other global competitions. Fubo Sports Network, meanwhile, is home to Premier League, Serie A, Coppa Italia and Supercoppa Italiana matches in Canada. Combined, the companies say the partnership delivers one of the most comprehensive sports lineups available to Canadian viewers.
“DAZN’s partnership with Fubo marks a major step in delivering greater accessibility to premium sports and value to Canadian sports fans,” said Deidra Dionne, the Vice President of DAZN Canada. “By combining content from two powerhouse platforms, we’re creating a more seamless viewing experience and offering one of the most comprehensive sports lineups available—whether you’re following the NFL, UEFA Champions League, or Premier League, it is now all in one place.”
Ben Grad, the Senior Vice President of Strategic Partnerships and Operations at Fubo, added: “Our collaboration with DAZN in Canada is a game changer for Canadian sports fans. Fubo’s soccer-mad customers will be able to watch even more world-class soccer, including exclusive DAZN properties like UEFA Champions League and Bundesliga through one cohesive experience. Beyond soccer, together we will offer the best in global sports where fans can access NFL alongside NBA, MLB, NHL, and more on Fubo.”
DAZN is available in Canada across smart TVs, smartphones, tablets and gaming consoles. Fubo programming is accessible on mobile devices, connected TVs and web browsers, with apps on Amazon Fire TV, Android, Google TV, Apple TV, Chromecast, Hisense, iOS, LG TV, Roku, Samsung, Vizio and Xbox One.
