Here’s how to tune into the season’s third and final Grand Tour.
How to watch in Australia
If you want to watch the Vuelta from Australia, you’ve got two options: via SBS or via Eurosport on Foxtel.
SBS’ coverage will cost you nothing. Each stage will be streamed live and free via the Cycling Central website and SBS OnDemand. Selected stages — stages 15, 16, 18 and 20 — will also be live on the SBS Viceland TV channel as well. SBS Cycling Central has all the details, including broadcast times for each stage.
You can also catch each stage of the Vuelta live via Eurosport on Foxtel (channel 511). This is a paid service with a range of TV and streaming-only options available. Check out the Foxtel website for more information.
How to watch in the US
If you’re in the US, you’ve got a couple options as well.
NBC Sports Gold’s ‘Cycling Pass’ costs $54.99 for the year (from May 28, 2019 to May 1, 2020) and includes livestreaming on whatever device you like, for a whole bunch of races. Every stage of the Vuelta will be streamed live there. Head to the NBC Sports website for the broadcast schedule.
You can also stream the Vuelta live via Fubo.tv, also on just about any device you like. At the time of writing Fubo.tv is offering a free trial, but that’s only a week long, while the Vuelta is three weeks. Fubo.tv’s basic package will cost you $54.99 per month.
How to watch in Canada
If you’re in Canada, Flobikes is where you’ll need to go. You’ll need a subscription to get access to this streaming service. A monthly subscription will cost you $30 while a yearly account will set you back $150 ($12.50 per month). The service also offers a bunch of other cycling events throughout the year.
How to watch in the UK
If you’re in the UK and you want live coverage (ITV4 has delayed coverage), you’ll need to get access to Eurosport. A subscription to the Eurosport Player streaming service will cost you £6.99 per month while an annual pass will set you back £39.99, or £4.99 per month.
