DAZN 1 HD launching on Sky

16 March 2023
DAZN

For the first time in the UK and Ireland, sports broadcaster DAZN will offer a regular, linear TV channel on a major TV platform.

Starting on Thursday 23rd March, DAZN 1 will show a 24/7 schedule of live and catch-up content, notably boxing and 50 fights a year featuring international stars Anthony Joshua, Canelo Álvarez, Katie Taylor and Ryan Garcia.

On 1st April, Anthony Joshua returns to action against Jermain Franklin in the O2 Arena, live on DAZN 1 HD.

The service had been criticised by some fans for previously being online only and lacking the visibility of other sports services. DAZN obtained an Ofcom licence to broadcast on satellite earlier this year.


▶ How do I watch DAZN on Sky in the UK and Ireland?

  • DAZN will launch on Sky satellite channel 429.
  • You’ll need a DAZN subscription. Subscribing to DAZN 1 HD will give you access to entire DAZN service via the DAZN app, which can be downloaded on Smart TVs, Games Consoles, Amazon Fire TV, Amazon Fire TV Stick, Chromecast, Apple TV or on mobile, tablets or DAZN.com
  • DAZN subscriptions start from £9.99 a month via dazn.com

What’s available on DAZN?

For UK fans, DAZN offers:

  • the fastest-growing mixed martial arts (MMA) competition: the Professional Fighters League, alongside a full roster of MMA content including, MMA Bushido, MMA Naciones, Oktagon MMA, King of Kings, Brave Combat Federation, and Muay Thai For Life.
  • DAZN also brings an action-packed wrestling schedule with All Elite Wrestling, Impact Wrestling and Prime Time Wrestling.

Away from combat sports, DAZN also offers viewers:

  • every game of the UEFA Women’s Champions League and top-flight Spanish women’s football Primera División Femenina,
  • emerging sports such as Streetleague Skateboarding, eSports, and extreme sports with Red Bull TV
  • as well as DAZN documentaries including the recent World Cup series – Three Lions, Maradona: The Fall and The Phenomenon.

Corporate Comment

DAZN Group CEO, Shay Segev said:

Getting DAZN widely distributed is a priority for us as it delivers our great and growing array of content to more and more fans. We have ambitious, long-term and strategic plans for the UK market. The more people get to know DAZN and what we offer, not just in terms of rights but the full range of digital, interactive and sports entertainment we are developing, the better. This launch is great news for sports fans. DAZN 1 HD will optimise exposure for the upcoming Anthony Joshua fight, ensuring it is his most hotly anticipated and accessible bout in over a decade.”
