Disney+ Secures Live Sports from L'Équipe
10 Jun
Summary
- Disney+ France now features live sports from L'Équipe.
- World Cup and Dakar Rally will be streamed.
- Subscribers get access to popular L'Équipe shows.
Disney+ in France is enhancing its sports content through a new pact with the free-to-air sports channel, L'Équipe. This agreement allows Disney+ subscribers to stream live sports traditionally broadcast by L'Équipe, including prestigious events such as the World Cup and the Dakar Rally.
The collaboration also brings flagship L'Équipe programs, like "L'Équipe du Soir," "L'Équipe de Greg," and "L'Équipe de Choc," directly to the Disney+ platform. Viewers can anticipate access to a variety of other sports, including the 24 Hours of Le Mans and the Diamond League, broadening the appeal for sports enthusiasts.
This strategic partnership follows Disney+'s recent trend of collaborating with established European broadcasters, mirroring similar deals with UK's ITV, Germany's ZDF Studios, and Spain's Atresmedia. The move aligns with broader industry shifts, as seen with Netflix's recent pact with TF1, indicating a growing convergence between traditional media and streaming services.
