The Paris Olympics is here and it’s time to curl up on the couch and go full nocturnal sports mode for a fortnight of the best sporting action the world has to offer.

The Paris Olympic Games begin on Friday, July 26 and run through to Sunday, August 11.

The International Olympic Committee awarded Channel 9 the exclusive TV broadcast rights for the Paris Olympics, as well as Los Angeles in 2028 and Brisbane in 2032.

On top of coverage on Channel 9’s main channels and 9Now, the network’s streaming arm Stan Sport will also run live coverage of all 329 medal events.

All events will be shown across a large range of 40 individual sport channels, an exclusive 24/7 Olympic News channel and four live & exclusive feature channels crossing between the big moments.

Stan Sport will have two daily shows called Olympics Daily and Paris Preview, where a line-up of Aussie Olympic legends will dissect the day’s action.

The shows will be hosted by Adam Peacock and Tara Rushton.

Ash Barty, who won a bronze medal in Tokyo, will give her insights to Australian audiences for the first time since retiring from tennis in 2022.

Stan Sport will also showcase eight international channels in a world first, allowing communities to access coverage in different languages.

Viewers can watch official coverage from the UK, Spain, France, Germany, Greece and Italy (Eurosport), India (Viacom 18) and New Zealand (Sky New Zealand).

“Thanks to the support from the IOC and the great partners of Eurosport, TV18 and Sky New Zealand, Stan Sport will bring curated official international channels in multiple languages, making the Olympics accessible to even more Australians than ever before,” Stan CEO Martin Kugeler said.

Stan Sport currently costs $15 per month, on top of an existing Stan subscription which starts from $12.
