Willow Sports to Air 700 Hours of Free Asian Games Coverage for U.S. and Canadian Viewers

Willow Sports has announced it will serve as the exclusive U.S. and Canadian home for approximately 700 hours of live coverage from the Aichi-Nagoya 2026 Asian Games, beginning September 19. The channel will launch three temporary pop-up FAST channels - Asian Games 1, 2, and 3 - allowing viewers to choose among simultaneous live events. Live coverage is expected to air between approximately 7 p.m. and 7 a.m. ET, corresponding with competition in Japan.

The 20th Asian Games take place September 19 through October 4 in Aichi-Nagoya, Japan, featuring more than 11,000 athletes from 45 countries and regions across 43 sports and 469 medal events.

Competing for your country brings a different level of intensity, and that's what makes the Asian Games so compelling, says Todd Myers, Chief Operating Officer, Willow TV. Cricket is at the heart of Willow, but Willow Sports gives us the opportunity to bring a much wider range of live sports to fans. The Asian Games take that to another level, with two weeks of elite international competition and national rivalries that fans across the U.S. and Canada can watch at no cost.

All four channels will be available on Fubo, Sling, Google TV, Xumo, Plex, Karostream, Free Live Sports, and Fawesome. Willow Sports will additionally be available on Prime Video, Roku, Samsung, DistroTV, FreeCast, YuppTV, and FreeSports.

Cricket will be among the featured competitions, with Willow TV and Willow by Cricbuzz serving as the exclusive U.S. home for the men's and women's T20 tournaments.
