Netflix has secured exclusive broadcasting rights to all 104 matches of the 2030 FIFA World Cup in Spain and Andorra, the streaming platform announced.
The deal will allow Netflix to stream every match live, along with pre-match, half-time and post-match programmes from a Spanish perspective. The platform also plans a daily highlights show on match days and additional content in the build-up to the tournament.
Under the agreement, at least one match per matchday will be available free of charge on Netflix in Spain. A separate package of games — including every match involving Spain, both semi-finals and the final — will be made available to a national free-to-air broadcaster, which has yet to be named.
Netflix Chief Content Officer Bela Bajaria said the agreement would bring the competition closer to fans in the two territories.
“Few events unite people like the World Cup,” Bajaria said. She added that the tournament’s passion, pride and stories become part of a nation’s culture and are remembered for generations.
Spain, the defending world champions after winning the 2026 tournament, will co-host the 2030 edition with Portugal and Morocco. Uruguay, Argentina and Paraguay will stage special centenary matches to mark 100 years since the first World Cup in 1930.
FIFA Secretary General Mattias Grafström welcomed the partnership, saying the governing body looked forward to working with Netflix to bring the tournament to supporters across Spain and Andorra.
The financial terms of the deal were not disclosed. The rights cover only Spain and Andorra and do not grant Netflix exclusive worldwide broadcasting rights for the 2030 World Cup.
The agreement builds on Netflix’s existing relationship with FIFA, which includes rights to the 2027 and 2031 Women’s World Cups in the United States and Canada. It also forms part of the streamer’s wider expansion into live sports, which already includes selected NFL and MLB games, WWE programming, boxing and mixed martial arts.
