DAZN RETURNS FOR SECOND SEASON OF NFL GAME PASS WITH NEW FEATURES AND OFFERS FOR THE 2024 NFL SEASON

 

London, 2 September 2024 – DAZN, the world’s leading sports entertainment platform, and the National Football League are ready for fans across the globe to watch an exciting 2024 NFL season on NFL Game Pass — via DAZN’s platform in 200+ markets around the world, as well as on YouTube and Amazon in select markets.

As part of a milestone 10-year strategic partnership, DAZN and the NFL are committed to delivering an immersive and engaging entertainment experience for the 2024 season. The partnership saw resounding success during its first year, as viewership across Super Bowl LVIII week increased 61% year-on-year, and the number of NFL Game Pass subscribers grew by 30% year-on-year.

DAZN will continue innovating and enhancing the viewing experience. For the 2024 season, fans can support their favourite team and be at the heart of the action through a range of new streaming options and features. Fans will have access to every game with US broadcast and halftime analysis, while an increased number of games will be shown with local commentary*.

Meanwhile, fans choosing to catch-up on-demand can do so by downloading replays, highlights and shows directly to the DAZN app at any time. Fans can also experience convenient on-the-go streaming on their mobile or tablet while travelling to more than 200 countries and territories. Users can personalise their experience by opting in to ad-free replays and hiding games’ stats and scores to avoid spoilers and receive a live game experience.

With NFL Game Pass, fans will be able to stream every game live**, including the 2024 International Games as well as Super Bowl LIX, NFL RedZone, NFL Network, NFL Originals, DAZN programming, documentaries and much more.

DAZN brings multiple ways for fans to connect with NFL games, from offering 40-minute highlight videos and Game In 40 to a coaches’ perspective stream with an aerial view of the field, for a better analysis of tactical plays.

DAZN will also offer a free game every week for its users***. This premium addition to DAZN’s ever-expanding free content proposition is a strategic move that represents DAZN and the NFL’s shared ambition to bring the NFL to new audiences and broaden engagement opportunities across the world.

DAZN wants to offer every NFL fan increased accessibility to other live sports. These free games join DAZN’s growing free tier, which already includes the UEFA Women’s Champions League, as well as select live matches and complete matches on-demand from top international soccer leagues, such as LALIGA, Serie A, Ligue 1 and Saudi Pro League, and much more, including boxing, across markets.

Existing and new DAZN customers can also view a full suite of NFL archive content and a range of documentaries. Viewers can choose to relive every past Super Bowl or take a deep-dive on their favourite team, exploring thousands of hours of on-demand shows.

DAZN is focused on nurturing the global NFL community. Through DAZN’s game-changing FanZone, viewers can discover new ways to enjoy the NFL, connecting and watching games with other NFL fans around the world. Embracing the atmosphere of a public screening, NFL fans can chat and connect with one another during live events through interactive widgets, such as polls, quizzes and competitions. Fans can also take part in a new, free-to-play Six to Win game and win a prize for guessing the correct scores of six NFL games.

DAZN offers fans the greatest flexibility in how and where they choose to watch NFL games. Fans can access NFL Game Pass as a standalone package or as an add-on to an existing DAZN subscription. DAZN is available on most connected devices, including smart TVs, set-top boxes, streaming sticks, smartphones, tablets, PCs and game consoles.

Shay Segev, CEO at DAZN Group, said: “After an immensely successful first season working together, DAZN’s partnership with the NFL has surpassed expectations. DAZN is helping the NFL grow its international reach, expand its fan base and deliver an unparalleled out-of-stadium entertainment experience. Continuously changing the game, DAZN will offer NFL fans a huge variety of content and features to make this another unforgettable season, keeping fans engaged and entertained, and attracting new supporters to the thrilling world of the NFL.”

Sameer Pabari, Managing Director, International Media at the NFL added: “Season one of our partnership with DAZN saw a shared ambition to bring the very best of the NFL to global audiences. We look forward to season two and continuing to accelerate collective efforts to take the game to new audiences and drive global fan growth in new and innovative ways.”
