How to watch 2024 Olympics for free - Wednesday, Aug. 4

The 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris are finally here, and with so many excellent streaming alternatives available, you don't have to worry about missing a second of the action if you don't have a cable or satellite package.

One station is unable to cover the entirety of the two-week event due to its enormity. In addition to airing events on its affiliate stations and Peacock streaming service, NBC will provide all of the primary coverage. Every day, recaps, replays, and live events will all be broadcast.

We have good news if you have already severed the cord. Several streaming sites will have all of this year's Olympic content available, with a free alternative making its debut just in time for the Summer Games.
