Netflix announced on Tuesday, October 13, 2026, an agreement with FIFA to acquire the exclusive broadcasting rights for the 2030 World Cup in Spain and Andorra, where it will offer all 104 matches of the tournament live. The competition will feature 48 teams and will be held from June 8 to July 21, 2030, in a special edition commemorating the centenary of the first World Cup, played in Uruguay in 1930. Spain, Portugal, and Morocco will be the main host countries, while Argentina, Paraguay, and Uruguay will host commemorative matches.

In addition to broadcasting all the games, the platform will incorporate pre-match analysis programs, halftime coverage, post-match commentary, and daily highlights. The agreement also includes free options for the Spanish public: one match per day will be available at no cost, and a free-to-air television channel will have a package including all of the Spanish national team's commitments, the two semifinals, and the final. However, the broadcaster that will hold these rights has not yet been identified. The financial terms of the deal have also not been disclosed by Netflix or FIFA.

In Mexico, the broadcast of the 2030 World Cup by Netflix is still unconfirmed, as the announced agreement only covers Spain and Andorra. Audiovisual rights are negotiated by territory, so the agreement does not guarantee that Mexican subscribers will be able to access all 104 matches through the platform. As of the announcement on October 13, no channels or services that will broadcast the tournament in the national market had been announced either. Netflix continues to expand its presence in international sports, as it also holds the rights to the 2027 and 2031 Women's World Cups in the United States and Canada.
