Ensuring you've got a reliable Euro 2024 live stream is one of the most important things you can do ahead of the tournament next summer, with the European Championships the next international tournament on the agenda for sides from the continent.
Euro 2024 qualifying is still ongoing, with all 53 European teams vying for a spot in the 24-nation tournament in Germany.
With seven groups of five teams and three groups of six teams, each nation is at different stages of Euro 2024 qualifying. Four matchdays are still left to play in qualifying, with two sets of two fixtures scheduled for October and November. The play-offs will take place in March.
Viaplay and Channel 4 currently hold the broadcasting rights in the UK to showcase qualifying, though there are alternative options elsewhere in Europe to watch Euro 2024 qualifying matches for free.
Once the tournament rolls around, however, Euro 2024 is free on BBC iPlayer and ITVX. Brit abroad? Use a VPN to watch Euro 2024 free from anywhere.

VPN guide
Use a VPN to watch Euro 2024 from outside your country
If you’re out of the country for some or all of the Euros, then annoyingly your domestic on-demand services won’t work – the broadcaster knows where you are because of your IP address (boo!). You'll be blocked from watching it, which is not ideal if you’ve paid up for a subscription and still want to catch the action without resorting to illegal feeds you’ve found on Reddit.
But assistance is on hand. To get around that, all you have to do is get a Virtual Private Network (VPN), assuming it complies with your broadcaster’s T&Cs. A VPN creates a private connection between your device and t'internet, meaning the service can’t work out where you are and won't automatically block the service you've paid for. All the info going between is entirely encrypted – and that's a result.
There are plenty of good-value options out there, including:
