Watch Euro 2024 for FREE in the UK

As is traditionally the case with major international tournaments in the UK, Euro 2024 matches will be shared equally between the BBC and ITV. Games will be shown for FREE on the broadcasters' terrestrial TV channels, and their respective BBC iPlayer and ITVX streaming services. 

Today you'll need to tune into ITV for France vs Belgium before switching over to the BBC for Portugal vs Slovenia.

Travelling abroad during the tournament? England and Scotland fans away from home can still watch a Euro 2024 live stream as they would back home. All you need is a quality VPN, such as NordVPN, to watch your usual free stream when overseas. Read on to find out how.

Use a VPN to watch from anywhere

If you’re out of the country for some or all of the Euros, then annoyingly your domestic on-demand services won’t work – the broadcaster knows where you are because of your IP address (boo!). You'll be blocked from watching it, which is not ideal when you know you'd have free access back home, and want to watch the games without resorting to illegal feeds you’ve found on Reddit.

But help is at hand. All you need to do to navigate those geoblocking restrictions is buy yourself a VPN (Virtual Private Network) – assuming it complies with your broadcaster’s T&Cs, of course. 

A VPN creates a private connection between your device and t'internet, meaning the service can’t work out where you are and won't automatically block the service you've paid for. All the info going between is also entirely encrypted – and that's a result.

There are plenty of good-value options out there, but NordVPN scores particularly highly for Euro 2024:
