Foxtel Business has secured an exclusive distribution partnership with BeIN Sports, bringing premium international soccer and tennis back to over 4,000 pubs and clubs across Australia. This agreement marks the return of BeIN’s three linear channels to licensed venues after a six-month hiatus following the conclusion of their previous distribution deal with Screach.
The partnership allows venue operators to integrate BeIN Sports into their existing Foxtel setups without additional equipment. The programming lineup includes heavyweights such as LaLiga, Serie A, the Bundesliga, and the EFL Cup, alongside comprehensive coverage of the ATP and WTA tennis tours. This move further solidifies Foxtel’s position as the dominant sports provider for the Australian hospitality sector, adding to a portfolio that already includes the AFL, NRL, and ESPN.
