Entertainment

Do you find yourself missing out on some of the most talked about sports moments? These days, figuring out how and where to watch the games and events you want to see can be tough. No matter which sport you watch, we want you to find it quickly and easily with Xfinity.  

If you are watching with cable, a subscription to either X1 or Sports & News TV will have you fairly covered to watch your local and regional professional sports teams and most nationally-aired games and special events. Xfinity TV customers who want to access out-of-market games and other league-exclusive content can explore optional add-on TV packages.  

X1 and Sports & News TV customers can also stream easily from anywhere and on any device with the Xfinity Stream app. But for the “cord cutters” seeking out streaming-only options to watch sports, the landscape has both improved and become more complex in recent years.
