Watch all of the 2024 Paris Olympics with Peacock TV
As in the years past, NBC (Channel 9 in Denver) will carry the bulk of the main coverage. But if you want to see every medal and every event, then the NBC streaming app Peacock might be worth a one month subscription. While the Peacock app is not quite as intuitive as Netflix, it is still pretty easy to use and it has all the events, including Modern Pentathlon, which is an event hardly anyone ever sees or even knows about. See full review of Peacock here.
How to get Peacock TV for free with Comcast Xfinity
However, if you have Xfinity as your ISP you may actually already have a subscription to Peacock and not even know it. (Xfinity / Comcast owns NBC Universal). To see if your Xfinity account grants you a complimentary subscription to Peacock, simply log into your Xfinity account and check your latest statement. Towards the bottom of your Statement you should see an entry for Peacock under “Add Ons.”
If you check your Xfinity statement and it says Peacock Premium included, you can sign up via your computer or phone and then download the Peacock app to your streaming media player or smart TV. You can even download the app to your phone and watch the Olympics while you are on the go.
