The free tier does NOT include any Olympics content — Premium subscription required.
The Opening and Closing Ceremonies air on NBC, not Peacock, in prime time.
Some live events may buffer during peak viewing times — a wired internet connection is recommended.
DVR/recording is not available; use the on-demand replay feature instead.
Device compatibility
Each device links to setup instructions and troubleshooting.
Other ways to watch
Peacock is the single most important app for the 2026 Milano Cortina Olympics. Full stop. Every sport, every medal event, every preliminary round — it all streams live on Peacock. If you only sign up for one thing, this is it.
Pricing
| Tier | Monthly | Annual | Ads? | 4K? |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Peacock Premium | $7.99 | $79.99 | Yes, limited | No |
| Peacock Premium Plus | $13.99 | $139.99 | No* | Yes |
Premium Plus removes most ads, though live sports may still include brief commercial breaks during natural stoppages.
What You Get
- Live streams of all Olympic events, organized by sport
- Multi-view — watch up to four streams simultaneously on supported devices
- Full-event replays posted within roughly an hour of each session ending
- Daily highlight shows and studio coverage
- Gold Zone — a whip-around live channel that jumps between events as medals are decided (think NFL RedZone, but for the Olympics)
How to Find Events
In the Peacock app, go to Sports > Olympics > Browse by Sport to see every available stream. The main Olympics hub on Peacock also features a live schedule sorted by time, so you can see what’s happening right now.
What Peacock Doesn’t Do
Peacock does not include access to USA Network’s linear cable feed. If you want to watch USA Network’s produced daytime broadcast — with its own commentary team and studio segments — you need a separate cable or live-TV streaming login. However, the actual sporting events shown on USA Network are also available on Peacock’s own streams, just with different commentary.
Also note: Peacock streams can run 30–60 seconds behind a traditional cable feed. If you’re watching alongside someone on cable, you may get spoiled by their reactions. Close the group chat during close races.
