In addition to airing across the NBC family of networks, you can once again stream every event of the 2024 Olympics on Peacock. However, this year, they’re making it easier than ever to tune into all of the moments that matter.
With over 300 medal events and over 5,000 hours of content, it’s impossible to see it all, but thanks to Gold Zone, multi-view, and more, Peacock is changing the way you can stream the Olympics — why watch one event when you can watch up to 10 simultaneously?
It’s a game changer, and people are taking note.
Peacock is the only place to stream Gold Zone, so below, we compiled everything you need to know to tune in.
Peacock‘s third go at streaming the Olympics is also the biggest yet with over 5,000 hours of content. Peacock has also come up with some new, interesting ways to watch the Olympics.
Gold Zone
Gold Zone is the Olympics version of the NFL RedZone channel. They even have the octobox!
RedZone, if you’re not aware, is a channel that is live every Sunday during the NFL season to “whip around” to all of the in-progress games on CBS and FOX whenever a team enters the “red zone” and is in scoring position.
Gold Zone is like that but for the Olympics.
Every day of the Olympics (through July 10), Gold Zone will go live at 7:00 a.m. ET on Peacock and present live coverage through 5:00 p.m. ET, with up to 10 live events going on one screen at a time. Gold Zone is hosted by RedZone’s Scott Hanson, who kicks off coverage every morning before a rotating crew of anchors takes over.
As the name implies, the stream will switch over to presenting a single event any time a medal is close to being decided, but if you’re trying to take in as much of the Olympics’ can’t-miss moments as you can, GoldZone is a game-changer.
Multi-View
Multi-view is similar to GoldZone, only it doesn’t have a live host taking you around explaining the events. It simply presents four of the top events live at any given moment, with the option to choose which event’s audio you hear.
There are also multi-view streams for individual events with many components, such as a gymnastics team final (one camera is situated at each apparatus) or the tennis tournament with multiple games happening across a number of courts at Roland Garros.
In Peacock, the Olympics have a place in the top navigation bar and in that section, you’ll be able to find everything live now, including GoldZone. GoldZone is also available to watch from the beginning and replay later on.
Peacock has two subscription plans: Peacock Premium with ads($7.99/month or $79.99/year) and Peacock Premium Plus without ads($13.99/month or $139.99/year).
Peacock also offers discounted Premium plans for students ($1.99/month) and members of the armed forces ($2.99/month).
Gold Zone is live on Peacock every day through July 10 from 7:00 a.m. ET to 5:00 p.m. ET. Multi-view is live whenever there are multiple top events happening at the same time.
