Here’s How You Can Watch the 2022 Winter Olympics Across NBCUniversal Platforms

NBCUniversal is gearing up for the 2022 Winter Olympics in Beijing, which will be held Feb. 2-20, and will present a Winter Olympics-record amount of programming across its linear, digital and streaming platforms. The company will air more than 2,800 hours of coverage on the NBC broadcast network, USA and CNBC cable networks, Peacock and its digital platforms. NBC will feature 18 nights of primetime coverage, kicking off Feb. 3, the night before the Opening Ceremony. As it did with last year's 2020 Tokyo Olympics, NBC will also provide full-day coverage of the Opening Ceremony on Feb. 4, airing it live beginning at 6:30 a.m. ET and also streaming on Peacock. This marks the first-ever live morning presentation of a Winter Olympics Opening Ceremony for NBCUniversal. The full day of coverage will end with an enhanced primetime presentation of the Opening Ceremony on NBC and Peacock. Peacock Will Livestream All of NBCUniversal’s Winter Olympics Coverage NBC will air nearly 200 hours of Winter Olympics coverage, and the primetime presentation will be televised live across the country featuring high-profile sports like figure skating, alpine skiing, snowboarding, short track and speed skating. The broadcaster previously decided against airing one of its new or returning entertainment shows in its coveted post-Super Bowl 56 timeslot on Feb. 13, taking place at the same time as the Winter Olympics. Instead, the network will air Olympics coverage after the Super Bowl ends. Following the shutdown of NBC Sports Network last month, USA Network is taking on a bigger role this Olympics and will serve as the cable home of the Winter Olympics. The cable network will have nearly 400 hours of content across 19 days and nights. USA will have all 15 sports and many live medal ceremonies. The company said that the channel will feature round-the-clock Olympic coverage most days. The network will have live Olympics coverage throughout the day and night on Feb. 13 while NBC broadcasts the Super Bowl. CNBC is set to have roughly 80 hours of Olympics coverage, mostly in the evenings when its traditional business coverage is finished. Those sports will be primarily curling and ice hockey. Everything's on Peacock Following last year’s complaints that streaming service Peacock had only scattershot coverage of the 2020 Tokyo Olympics, NBCUniversal previously announced that Peacock Premium subscribers in the U.S. will be able to livestream all of NBCUniversal’s coverage of the Beijing Games. The streamer will have all of the events airing on NBCUniversal’s broadcast and cable networks, live competition streams across all 15 sports, and the Opening and Closing Ceremonies. Premium subscribers—who pay at least $5 per month—will also have access to NBC’s nightly primetime show and full replays of all competition immediately after each event ends, as well as daily studio programming, highlights and medal ceremonies. Beginning on Feb. 5, Peacock will stream four exclusive shows featuring top moments from the Olympic Games, interviews with athletes and expert analysis. The shows include The Olympics Show, Olympic Ice, Winter Gold and Top Highlights. The shows will also re-stream throughout the day on Peacock’s Olympic Spotlight Channel. On the digital side, NBCOlympics.com and NBC Sports app will live stream more than 2,100 hours from Beijing, a record for the Winter Olympics. Digital coverage will have live streaming of all events and competitions for authenticated users across desktops, mobile devices, tablets and connected TVs, as well as a TV simul-stream coverage of the three TV networks broadcasting the Games.
