Stan Sport has extended its exclusive Australian streaming and broadcast rights for the Premier League through to the 2033/34 season.
Under the new agreement announced on Thursday, Nine Entertainment will continue hosting football’s biggest league on Stan Sport, where fans can access every match live and exclusive. The extension came with two seasons still remaining on the current deal, with the 2026/27 season kicking off only weeks ago.
“Football is the ultimate global game, followed with remarkable intensity by millions of fans across Australia. Bringing the Premier League to Stan has been a genuine game-changer for our business, and we are very pleased to be extending the partnership for a further six years,” Nine Entertainment CEO Matt Stanton said.
“As the sole rights holder in Australia, Nine is uniquely placed to activate our assets across streaming and broadcast, publishing and outdoor to promote awareness of Premier League, deepen fan engagement, and tell the game’s stories across the entirety of the season.
“This agreement further strengthens Nine’s premium sport offering and reflects Nine’s long-term strategy of investing in premium live sport and delivering the sporting moments that matter most to Australians.”
Nine Managing Director of Streaming & Broadcast, Amanda Laing, added: “Extending this deal through to the 2033/34 season is an incredible milestone for Nine and a direct reflection of the strength of the partnership between Stan and the Premier League. When we brought the Premier League to Stan Sport, we set out to deliver an unmissable viewing experience for our subscribers, and the response has been remarkable. The Premier League rights have been one of the largest drivers of subscriptions in Stan Sport history and were a key contributor to our strong financial results in FY26.
“The six-year extension cements Nine as the undisputed home of football in Australia, and reinforces Nine’s commitment to delivering the world’s best sport, news and entertainment across the country’s most comprehensive media network. With a world-class sporting calendar that includes the NRL and NRLW, State of Origin, Olympic Games, Australian Open, NBL and WNBL, Super Netball and the 2027 Netball World Cup, Rugby Union and the Men’s Rugby World Cup 2027 in Australia, Nine delivers an unrivalled level of scale and depth in sport coverage and sets the benchmark for sports broadcasting in Australia.
