How to Watch the 2026 World Cup in Spanish: Complete Broadcast Guide and Streaming Options

The 2026 FIFA World Cup runs from June 11 to July 19, featuring 48 teams competing across 104 matches. Fans in the United States can catch every match in English on Fox and FS1. For those wanting to watch in Spanish, all games will be shown on Telemundo or Universo, and streamed live via Peacock.

Where to Watch in Spanish

Every 2026 World Cup game will air on Telemundo and Universo. If you don't have cable, streaming options include Peacock, DirecTV, and other platforms offering these channels.

Streaming Without Cable

An ad-supported subscription to Peacock costs $11 per month and includes access to live Spanish-language broadcasts of the entire tournament. Alongside sports, Peacock offers thousands of hours of entertainment, including popular shows like Parks and Recreation and The Office, plus Bravo content.

Walmart+ members receive free access to Peacock as part of their membership, which also comes with perks such as grocery delivery and gas discounts. Right now, Walmart+ is available at half price for an annual plan—just $49 for the year.

YouTube TV carries all necessary channels for both Spanish and English broadcasts, including Telemundo, Universo, Fox, and FS1. Currently, YouTube TV offers a deal at $67.99/month for the first five months, increasing to $82.99 afterward. Keep in mind, their livestreams may have slight delays, which could affect live viewing precision.

Peacock Subscription Tiers and Pricing

Peacock Select, the basic ad-supported plan without sports, costs $7.99/month or $79.99/year. It lacks live sports coverage, so it won't work for World Cup fans. Peacock Premium offers live sports, movies, and original programming for $10.99/month or $109.99/year, still with ads. The ad-free option, Premium Plus, costs $16.99/month or $169.99/year and includes downloads.

Ways to Watch for Free or Cheaper

Subscribers to Walmart+ get Peacock included without extra charge. Walmart+ normally costs $12.99/month or $98 annually but is currently 50% off. Spectrum TV customers with eligible packages might access Peacock Premium at no additional fee after logging into their Spectrum account.

Instacart+ subscribers qualify for a free annual Peacock Premium subscription, valued at $109.99. Instacart+ plans are $99/year post-trial and offer free grocery and restaurant delivery plus a NY Times Cooking app subscription.

Apple users can save over 30% by bundling Apple TV with Peacock Premium for $14.99/month or the ad-free Premium Plus for $19.99/month. Existing Apple One Family or Premier subscribers get an extra 35% discount on Peacock Premium Plus. This bundle includes access to originals like Ted Lasso, Severance, The Paper, The Traitors, as well as live F1, MLS, and MLB games.
