The EBU is proud to announce that it has renewed its rights agreement with World Aquatics for the exclusive live, highlights and delayed audiovisual media rights on all platforms across Europe for a further three-year period between 2024 and 2026, in a deal facilitated by SPORTFIVE.
The agreement comprises all of World Aquatics key events over the period, including the World Aquatics Championships in 2024 & 2025 as well as World Swimming Championships 2024 & 2026, World Junior Swimming Championships in 2025 and annual World Cup series in each of World Aquatics’ six sports: Swimming, Diving, Water Polo, Artistic Swimming, Open Water Swimming and High Diving.
The partnership, facilitated by World Aquatics’ media rights agent SPORTFIVE, covers all EBU territories, excluding the host territory for each World Cup event.
A total of 25 EBU Members have already committed to cover the events, as follows: BHRT (Bosnia Herzegovina); BNT (Bulgaria); HRT (Croatia); CYBC (Cyprus); YLE (Finland); France Televisions (France); ZDF (Germany); ERT (Greece); MTVA (Hungary); RUV (Iceland); RAI (Italy); LRT (Lithuania); RTCG (Montenegro); NOS (Netherlands); RTV (North Macedonia); TVP (Poland); RTP (Portugal); TVR (Romania); RTS (Serbia); STVR (Slovakia); RTVS (Slovenia); RTVE (Spain); SVT (Sweden); SRG SSR (Switzerland) and, for 2024, TRT (Turkey).
In total, EBU Members are expected to offer a minimum cumulative 2,000 hours of coverage of World Aquatics events across all their platforms during the period. EurovisionSport.com, the EBU’s digital sports platform, will complement this coverage, ensuring that every event in the World Aquatics line-up is seen free-to-air across the EBU footprint.
News rights are included for the EBU’s Members in North Africa.
