Bundesliga on TV 2026 - every fixture, your time zone

The Bundesliga is the top division of German football, led by Bayern Munich, Borussia Dortmund, RB Leipzig, Bayer Leverkusen and Eintracht Frankfurt. The season runs August to May, built around the traditional Saturday-afternoon block of kickoffs plus a Friday-night opener and Sunday matches.

This page lists every 2026 Bundesliga fixture with kickoff times converted to your local time and the live TV channel in 30+ countries. The Bundesliga is shown live in the UK on Sky Sports; this guide lists the confirmed channel for each match as it's announced, alongside coverage in 30+ other countries. Pick the countries you care about in the selector above to compare broadcasters side by side - whether you're at home, following from abroad, or just working out when a match starts on your clock.

The UK Saturday 3pm blackout, explained

During the Saturday afternoon closed period - roughly 2:45pm to 5:15pm UK time - no live football may be broadcast on UK television. The rule dates back to UEFA's Article 48 and is intended to protect attendances across the football pyramid. It applies to overseas leagues shown in the UK as well, which is why this guide lists the channel for each match in every country, not just the UK.

Why isn't a 3pm Saturday game on TV in the UK?

No live football may be broadcast in the UK during the Saturday afternoon closed period (roughly 2:45-5:15pm UK time) - a rule rooted in UEFA's Article 48, meant to protect match attendances. It applies to overseas leagues shown in the UK too, so a Bundesliga match in that window won't be live on UK TV, though it is broadcast in other countries.
