NFL Games in Europe 2026: Where to Watch Paris, Madrid and Munich on TV

Where to watch the NFL games in Europe 2026? Outside the US and China, NFL Game Pass on DAZN streams all three live: Paris on Sunday, October 25, Madrid on November 8 and Munich on November 15. Every game kicks off at 9:30 a.m. ET. In the US, Paris and Madrid air on NFL Network, and Munich is on FOX.

Paris goes first. Steelers vs. Saints at the Stade de France is the first NFL regular season game ever played in France, with kickoff at 2:30 p.m. Paris time and 1:30 p.m. in London. Then the Bengals face the Falcons at the Bernabéu, and the Patriots meet the Lions at FC Bayern Munich’s stadium, both at 3:30 p.m. local time.

One catch: streaming apps check where you connect from, so the Game Pass plan or cable login you pay for at home may not play when you travel. Below, you’ll find who shows each game and how to keep your own subscription working on the road.

Where to watch NFL games in Europe 2026: US, UK, Ireland, Canada and Australia

Here’s who carries the three games in the main English-speaking markets, as of October 19, 2026.

NFL Game Pass on DAZN is the one option that covers all three games in every country above except the US. It streams every NFL game live and on demand worldwide, excluding the US and China, and adds NFL RedZone, NFL Network and a full game archive. Every game comes with commentary in English, Spanish, Portuguese and French. Our DAZN streaming guide shows where the service is available. In Canada, Game Pass is included in a regular DAZN subscription.

DAZN prices by country: season and weekly passes

Game Pass comes as a season pass or a weekly pass, each in a Regular and an Ultimate tier. These are DAZN’s published prices as of October 19, 2026.

The weekly price is for the Regular tier. Ultimate adds Multiview with up to four games at once and streams on 5 devices in 2 locations, against 2 devices in 1 location on Regular.

Where to watch Steelers vs. Saints in Paris

In the US, Steelers vs. Saints is on NFL Network at 9:30 a.m. ET on Sunday, October 25. In the UK, Sky Sports lists the game on Sky Sports NFL from 1 p.m., half an hour before kickoff. In Ireland, Canada and Australia, Game Pass on DAZN has it live.

In France, the game is free on France 2 and france.tv, with France Télévisions holding the exclusive free-to-air rights. On pay TV, beIN SPORTS says it will also broadcast the Paris game, without saying yet whether that’s live.

Where to watch Bengals vs. Falcons in Madrid

Bengals vs. Falcons on Sunday, November 8, is on NFL Network in the US at 9:30 a.m. ET, which is 2:30 p.m. in London. The NFL says Sky Sports covers the International Games, but Madrid wasn’t in the Sky listings yet as of October 19, so check the Sky Sports schedule closer to the date. Game Pass on DAZN has the game everywhere outside the US and China.

In Spain, Mediaset shows it free, and three plans from DAZN Spain, Made in USA, Fútbol and Premium, include every International Game. On Game Pass there, you can switch to Spanish commentary.

Where to watch Patriots vs. Lions in Munich

Patriots vs. Lions on Sunday, November 15, is the only one of the three on FOX in the US, in English, with FOX Deportes in Spanish, at 9:30 a.m. ET. Traveling that weekend? Our guide to watching Fox Sports from anywhere walks you through it.

In Germany, the NFL says Sky Sport shows the European International Games live, with RTL as the free option. In the UK, as with Madrid, Sky hadn’t listed the game yet, and Game Pass on DAZN covers it. One UK catch: DAZN says two Sunday games a week air there on a 24-hour tape delay, and it hasn’t said which ones.

Can you watch the NFL Europe games for free?

Yes, in three countries. In France, the Paris game is free and live on France 2 and france.tv from 2:10 p.m., 20 minutes before kickoff. In Spain, Mediaset shows all three games free on Cuatro, Be Mad and Mediaset Infinity, according to its press release of September 9, 2026. In Germany, the NFL says RTL airs the European International Games live and free.

In the UK, Ireland, Canada and Australia, we found no verified free option for these three games as of October 19, and both DAZN Game Pass and Sky Sports need a subscription. In the US, how you get NFL Network and FOX depends on your TV provider.

France 2, Mediaset Infinity and RTL are made for viewers at home, and they tend to be available only inside their own country. If you live in France or Spain and you’re away that Sunday, the stream may simply not start. For paid services like Game Pass, the location check works the same way, and that’s where a VPN helps.

How to watch NFL Game Pass from abroad with a VPN

DAZN sets its Game Pass plans and prices by country, and the app checks where you connect from. If your plan comes from an EU country like Ireland, Germany or Spain, EU portability rules let you keep using it on temporary trips inside the EU. Leave the EU, or stay away for longer, and that cover runs out. Picture an Irish fan in New York for work: the plan is paid, but the app may not play the game.

A VPN from our table takes care of the location check. Connect to a server in the country where you pay for Game Pass, open DAZN and sign in. The app sees a connection from home and plays your plan as usual. You keep paying your own subscription, and nothing changes on your bill.

The ranking in the table is based on StreamFix data, and our VPN ranking methodology explains how each provider is scored. Americans on the road face the opposite problem: Game Pass isn’t sold in the US, so your home channels are NFL Network and FOX. With your own subscription, a US server lets you sign in as you would at home. Our guide to watching US streaming services from anywhere covers the details. Staying in Europe for a while? Game Pass is on sale through DAZN in the country you’re visiting.

Four steps to stream DAZN while traveling

1. Pick a VPN from the table

   Choose one that currently works with DAZN according to StreamFix data.

2. Install the app

   Put it on the phone, laptop or TV you plan to watch on.

3. Connect to your home country

   Pick a server in the country where your Game Pass is billed, or a US server for NFL Network or FOX.

4. Sign in and watch

   Log in with your own account and open the stream a few minutes before kickoff.

Paris, Madrid and Munich: schedule and kickoff times

All three games kick off at 9:30 a.m. ET. The European times shift because Europe turns its clocks back on October 25, the morning of the Paris game, while the US waits until November 1.

On the West Coast, that’s 6:30 a.m. PT. Local kickoff is 2:30 p.m. in Paris and 3:30 p.m. in Madrid and Munich, and Ireland runs on UK time. In Sydney, the games start after midnight on Monday: 12:30 a.m. for Paris, 1:30 a.m. for Madrid and Munich. Paris falls in Week 7 of the season, Madrid in Week 9 and Munich in Week 10.

Who’s playing in Paris, Madrid and Munich?

All six teams have played five or six games so far. The records below come from the league standings as of October 19, 2026.

Steelers vs. Saints at the Stade de France

The Saints are the designated home team in Paris, so Pittsburgh is officially the visitor. The Steelers come in with 4 wins and 2 losses, the Saints with 2 wins and 4 losses. It’s the first regular season game in France, played at the Stade de France in Saint-Denis, just north of Paris.

Bengals vs. Falcons at the Bernabéu

Atlanta is the home team in Madrid. The Falcons have 2 wins and 4 losses, while the Bengals sit at 3 wins and 2 losses after a bye in Week 6. It’s the second season in a row that Madrid hosts a regular season game, this time at Real Madrid’s Bernabéu.

Patriots vs. Lions at FC Bayern Munich’s stadium

Detroit hosts in Munich. The Patriots arrive with 4 wins and 2 losses, the Lions with 3 wins and 2 losses after their own Week 6 bye. It’s the sixth regular season game in Germany and the third in Munich. The league calls the venue FC Bayern Munich Arena.

First time watching American football? What to expect

These are regular season games that count in the standings, not exhibitions. The Saints, Falcons and Lions are the designated home teams, so each of them plays one of its home games in Europe this season.

A game has four quarters with a halftime break in the middle. The clock stops often, for incomplete passes, timeouts and TV breaks, so the broadcast lasts much longer than the game clock suggests. Plan for a full afternoon in Europe, or a long Sunday morning in America.

NFL Game Pass stream not working? What to do

• Check the server country. Geoblocking is the usual cause. Connect to the country where your Game Pass is billed, or to the US for NFL Network and FOX.

• Switch servers. Still blocked? Pick another server in the same country and reload the app.

• Clear the cache. Your app or browser may remember your real location. Clear cookies, open a private window or restart the app.

• Check your account. A VPN doesn’t replace a subscription. Game Pass needs your own active plan, and NFL Network or FOX need the same access you use at home.

• Test it before Sunday. Try your setup on another game during the week, not five minutes before kickoff on October 25.

Ready for Paris on October 25?
