DAZN brings football fever: Bundesliga conference now free of charge!

The Bundesliga broadcast landscape will be redesigned from the 2025/26 season, and DAZN has secured the rights to the Bundesliga conference. This means that football fans can look forward to exciting afternoons where they can watch all the games in the German top league at the same time. DAZN will offer the conference free of charge on all of its subscriptions, which is a positive signal for existing customers. Alice Mascia, managing director of DAZN in the DACH region, confirmed that no price increases are planned for current subscribers. Fans can continue to expect highlights and full matches of all Bundesliga games from Friday to Sunday. Vienna.at reports that Sky held the broadcasting rights for twenty years.

The subscription pricing structure remains unchanged, which has surprised many subscribers. The “Unlimited” subscription package for 34.99 euros as an annual subscription and 44.99 euros per month can be canceled and includes the Bundesliga conference, Sunday games, Champions League games (except Tuesday games on Amazon Prime Video) and football leagues from Italy, Spain and France. DAZN also offers sports such as NFL, darts, boxing and UFC. The “Super Sports” package is relatively new, which includes the Bundesliga conference for 19.99 euros, but does not include Sunday games or Champions League broadcasts. This package is currently offered for 9.99 euros per month as an annual subscription, but only for a limited period of time. Op-online.de summarizes the new offers from DAZN.

Changes to broadcast rights

As part of a comprehensive restructuring of media rights, pay TV broadcasts will also undergo extensive changes from the 2025/26 season. In the future, Sky will concentrate on individual games on Friday evenings and Saturday afternoons and will remain present with almost 80% of the Bundesliga games. This includes the Friday evening game, all individual games on Saturday afternoon and the top game on Saturday evening. In addition, Sky will broadcast all 2nd Bundesliga games individually.

For DAZN, taking over the conference means that it will now also take care of the Sunday games. DAZN broadcasts this in the time slots 3:30 p.m., 5:30 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. Sat.1 will broadcast nine games per season live on free TV, including the opening games of the Bundesliga and relegation games. At the same time, RTL will have access to the top games of the 2nd Bundesliga on free TV. This comprehensive media allocation shows that fans can look forward to a wide range of broadcast options.
