Story Highlights

NBCUniversal's new NBC Sports Network (NBCSN) a 24/7 linear network will officially launch next Monday, Nov. 17. NBCSN will be available exclusively through participating pay-tv distributors, launching first for all YouTube TV subscribers and soon on Xfinity, with other distributors to be announced at a later date. NBCSN will feature live games across major sports, giving pay-TV customers a way to enjoy much of NBC Sports' extensive sports portfolio that also streams on Peacock.

NBCUniversal delivers the biggest moments in sports, and the new NBC Sports Network gives pay-tv customers a seamless way to enjoy the wide range of sports in our portfolio, adding an important pillar in our linear and streaming strategy, says Matt Schnaars, President, Platform Distribution and Partnerships, NBCUniversal. NBCSN is a win across the board - driving value for fans and distributors who prefer an aggregated experience, league and conference partners seeking broad reach, and advertisers targeting engaged sports audiences - while also creating a new monetization path for some of our most premium programming and supporting NBCU's commitment to serving viewers wherever they watch, whether on Peacock, pay-tv, or both.
