Whether you’re a fan of road or mountain biking, options for watching a stage or two of the Tour de France are secure for several years.
NBC Sports, Peacock and the Amaury Sport Organisation (A.S.O.) have reached a six-year extension for exclusive U.S. media rights for the Tour de France. NBC Sports announced the news this week.
Beginning with the 111th Tour de France in June 2024, Peacock will become its exclusive home in the United States through 2029 with live start-to-finish coverage of every stage. Select stages will also simulcast live on NBC throughout the three-week event. Daily coverage on Peacock will include NBC Sports-produced pre- and post-race studio shows, full-stage replays, highlights, stage recaps, rider interviews and more.
As part of its previous agreement, NBC Sports and Peacock will present full live coverage this summer. The race will be July 1-23. Comcast/NBC Sports has served as the U.S. home of the event since 2001.
“We’re excited to reach this long-term agreement with A.S.O. to present the world’s most prestigious cycling event live on Peacock for years to come,” said Jon Miller, President of Acquisitions and Partnerships for NBC Sports. “With the Tour de France and our extensive cycling portfolio, we are proud to continue as the home of cycling in the United States, while continuing to bolster Peacock’s best-in-class slate of live sports programming.”
