\n\tSome of the best summer athletes in the world are heading to Scotland for the 2026 Commonwealth Games.<\/p>\n

\n\tA quadrennial event dating back to 1930, the Commonwealth Games unites thousands of athletes from more than 70 nations across the British Commonwealth \u2014 I.e. countries that are currently or were formerly part of the British Empire. So while countries like Canada, Australia, England, New Zealand, South Africa and Jamaica will all be participating, there will not be a U.S. contingent at the Games.<\/p>\n

\n\t\tHow to Watch the 2026 Commonwealth Games\t<\/h2>\n

\n\tThis year\u2019s Commonwealth Games run from July 23 to August 2 in Glasgow, Scotland, with events airing live and as nightly highlights on channels like 7Plus in Australia and Channel 5 in the UK.<\/p>\n

GET: EXPRESSVPN SUBSCRIPTION $3.49+<\/span> <\/div>\n

\n\tNorth American viewers can watch the Games for free on CBC, Canada\u2019s national public broadcaster, via a virtual private network like ExpressVPN or NordVPN (NordVPN excludes a 30-day money back guarantee). Your VPN lets you set your location to Canada to stream the CBC\u2019s coverage of the 2026 Commonwealth Games online from anywhere in the world.<\/p>\n

\n\t\tHow to Watch the 2026 Commonwealth Games From the U.S.\t<\/h2>\n

\n\tYou can also watch the Commonwealth Games in the U.S. through beIN SPORTS, the Qatar-based sports media group that is now available in America on streaming services like Fubo and Sling. <\/p>\n

\n\tFubo offers beIN SPORTS on its own for just $5.99\/month, or as part of the Fubo Core package, which gets you 200 live TV channels to stream online for $63.99\/month (regularly $88.99 monthly).<\/p>\n

\n\tSling Orange includes 50 hours of free cloud DVR in addition to an on-demand library of free TV shows and movies that you can stream online.<\/p>\n

\n\t\tCommonwealth Games 2026 Sports\t<\/h2>\n

\n\tUnlike previous Commonwealth Games, which have featured more than 30 different summer sports, this year\u2019s event will include just 10 sports, the lowest number of events offered at the Games since 1994. Organizers say rising costs, lack of venues and viewership decline have led to the removal of sports like field hockey, diving, rugby sevens and cricket. <\/p>\n

\n\tStill, there\u2019s plenty of big names to watch for in the remaining sports, which include athletics, swimming, artistic gymnastics, boxing and cycling. Paris 2024 Olympic swimming champions Kaylee McKeown from Australia and Adam Peaty from England, are expected to compete, as is Canada\u2019s gold-medal winning 4\u00d7100 meter men\u2019s relay team in track and field.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe track event will also see Scottish middle-distance runner Josh Kerr, who just broke the 27-year world record in the mile, and Jamaican superstar Shericka Jackson, a two-time World Champion who holds the second-fastest time ever recorded in the women\u2019s 200m events.<\/p>\n

\n\tReigning Olympic pommel horse champion\u00a0Rhys McClenaghan\u00a0from Northern Ireland will compete in the men\u2019s gymnastics event, where he\u2019ll face off against Cyprus\u2019\u00a0Marios Georgiou, who is a former European All-Around champion and a three-time Olympian.<\/p>\n

\n\tThis year\u2019s Commonwealth Games kicks off with an Opening Ceremony featuring British singer-songwriter Tom Walker (of \u201cLeave the Light On\u201d fame), along with Scottish singer-songwriter,\u00a0KT Tunstall and other local artists. The last edition of the Commonwealth Games was held in 2022 in Birmingham, where rockers Duran Duran performed at the Opening Ceremony.<\/p>\n
