    The 1924 Summer Olympics, which were held in Paris, marked the first inclusion of volleyball in the Summer Games as an unofficial event. Since 1964, volleyball has been a regular, fan-favorite event. This year sees the 100-year anniversary of volleyball in the Summer Olympics, in the place where it all began, so you’re definitely going to want to watch. The first step to keeping up with your Olympic Volleyball favorites, like Matt Anderson or Avery Skinner on the US Olympic volleyball teams, is finding the volleyball Olympics 2024 schedule and where to watch Olympic volleyball. If you’ve already cut the cord with your cable company, don’t worry, live TV streaming services offer the channels you’ll need to catch every spike, volley, and point scored.


    Where to watch Olympic Volleyball

    Many Olympic Volleyball events will stream exclusively on digital platforms – in the US, that means Peacock . Televised Olympic volleyball events will air on NBC, USA, E!, Telemundo, and Universo.

    Watch Olympic Volleyball on Peacock

    • Suggested Plan: Premium Plus
    • Price: $11.99
    • Free Trial: No
    • Channels Included: 50+

    NBC has exclusive broadcast rights to the 2024 Summer Olympics in the US, so naturally, their streaming service is one of the best options to watch your favorite Olympic volleyball team. Considering the fact that many Olympic volleyball events are only available digitally and not via traditional broadcast channels, Peacock becomes an even more attractive option — it offers streaming access to every single Olympic event. When you factor in the price point, Peacock really earns that gold medal when compared to other services — a year of Peacock costs as much as a month of some other services.

    Unfortunately, Peacock doesn’t include a DVR. Instead, it offers both live and on-demand access to every Olympic event, meaning if you miss that volleyball match you were dying to see because it aired at four in the morning, Peacock has it taken care of for you.

    Of course, there’s a host of non-Olympics content, too, like “Oppenheimer” and “Parks and Rec,” but those won’t include your Olympic volleyball team.
