October 22, 2026



The new winter sports season begins this October with Eurosport and TNT Sports set to broadcast more than 1,800 hours of programming including 126 days of live action between now and April 2027.

In total, 123 World Championship and World Cup titles will be won this winter across 12 different sports with each one broadcast live across Europe. Eurosport and TNT Sports will showcase close to 100 race formats as part of the most complete winter sports offer with coverage of the entire season encompassing everything from skiing to snowboarding and curling to skating.


Scott Young, EVP EMEA Sports at Eurosport and TNT Sports, commented: “Building on a record-breaking season that saw us bring winter sports coverage to more people across Europe than ever before, culminating in a monumental Olympic Winter Games Milano Cortina 2026, we are primed to build on that momentum. As the home of winter sports, we will cover every story on snow and ice this season with more live action, additional programming and new experts bringing fresh perspectives together with our unswerving approach to covering every major event. Our heritage as the premier winter sports broadcaster combined with innovative ways to consume content on HBO Max makes us the number one destination for every winter sports fan whatever their passion and we can’t wait for the season to begin.”

Streaming every major World Championship and World Cup event this season, HBO Max offers fans the ability to personalise their winter sports viewing experience with curated watch lists and features ensuring fans never miss a moment of the action. Integrated into the app ahead of its coverage of Milano Cortina 2026, features available for selected overlapping major events throughout 2026-2027 include Multiview which displays up to four live event feeds on one screen, and Key Moments which help subscribers navigate to action points. Multi-language commentary will also be available for selected events.

The 2026-2027 winter sports season follows a record-breaking period of coverage and audience engagement for Eurosport, TNT Sports and HBO Max. Its coverage of every event at the Olympic Winter Games Milano Cortina 2026 across Europe saw three times as many streaming subscribers watching on HBO Max (compared to its streaming coverage of the previous Olympic Winter Games Beijing 2022 on discovery+) with linear viewership on Eurosport and TNT Sports also increasing with +50 per cent more hours viewed overall (vs Beijing 2022).

Among the first winter sports events live on Eurosport, TNT Sports and HBO Max, the FIS Alpine Skiing World Cup begins in Sölden, Austria from October 24th to 25th followed by the start of the FIS Ski Jumping World Cup from Lillehammer, Norway from November 20th to 23rd, and the IBU Biathlon World Cup in Kontiolahti, Finland from November 26th to 29th.
