Zee Entertainment Enterprises Limited has secured broadcasting and streaming rights for 39 FIFA events in India from 2026 to 2034, including the FIFA World Cup 2026 and 2030. The company plans to launch four dedicated Unite8 Sports channels and use its Zee 5 platform to deliver this content, aiming to enhance its sports portfolio.
Key Takeaways
- Rights cover 39 FIFA events in India from 2026 to 2034.
- The package includes the FIFA World Cup 2026 and FIFA World Cup 2030.
- Zee Entertainment plans four dedicated Unite8 Sports channels.

For streaming watchers, the concrete signal is whether Zee actually launches all four Unite8 Sports channels and how it uses Zee 5 to distribute the FIFA World Cup 2026 and 2030 rights.
