Authorized platforms
PCCW's February 2026 announcement makes it explicit: Now TV is the paid main route for the tournament, while ViuTV's free digital channel carries selected matches and feature programming. Which fixtures are free-to-air is set by ViuTV's published schedule.
Now TV pairs with the Now E digital app for mobile and desktop streaming; ViuTV combines its terrestrial channel with on-demand reach via Viu.
| Language / scope | Main route | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| Cantonese · all matches | Now TV, Now E | Subscribers who want every fixture with Cantonese commentary |
| Cantonese · free matches | ViuTV, Viu | Non-subscribers who'll accept a curated selection |
| English / international feed | Carried by Now TV (specific channels per platform notice) | Fans who prefer English commentary |
How to choose in Hong Kong / Macau
If you plan to follow every group-stage match through to the final, subscribing to Now TV's tournament package is the cleanest path — knockout matches and high-interest fixtures will all run live on Now TV.
If you only need a handful of marquee matches, watch for ViuTV's free-to-air list. Macau viewers should confirm their local digital reception supports ViuTV before kick-off.
- Now TV and Now E offer monthly or tournament packages — pricing typically lands before kick-off
- ViuTV is free but limited; check whether the final is included in their free slate
- Bars and public viewing venues should use an authorized signal, not aggregator links
