Did you know X Games viewership among teens recently surged by 328%? The X Games are bigger and more relevant than ever, but trying to figure out where to actually watch them can feel like a difficult job.
You are hyped for the first drop of Men’s Ski Big Air because the clock is ticking. You frantically skim through sketchy-looking websites while dodging a dozen pop-up ads. We have all been there. It is the absolute worst, and it kills the vibe completely.
With NXTbets, there is no more last-minute scrambling. We are going to break down exactly where and how to watch every X Games event, no matter where you are in the world. We will cover the new streaming homes, the classic TV channels, and all the global options.
The days of just flipping on one channel and catching everything are pretty much over. The way we watch sports has changed, andX Gameshas made some really smart moves to make sure the events are easier to access for a new generation of fans who have cut the cord. Here are some of the best streaming options:
The Roku Channel (The New U.S. Home Base)
If you are in the United States, The Roku Channel should be your new best friend. This is the exclusive U.S. streaming home for major events likeX Games Aspen 2025and at least one big summer stop. It is a free, ad-supported app, which means you don’t need a subscription to watch the main live digital feed. You can find it on any Roku device or Roku TV, but it is also available on the web, on iOS and Android phones, and on other smart TVs like Amazon Fire TV and Google TV.
ESPN / ABC (The Traditional TV Window)
Don’t worry, X Games hasn’t completely left its old home. For those who still have a cable package or a cable-style streaming service, select high-profile competition blocks will still air on the classic linear channels, ESPN and ABC. This is perfect if you are used to that viewing experience or want to DVR the event.
To catch these specific windows, you’ll need a traditional cable or satellite subscription. Or, if you are a cord-cutter, you can use a vMVPD – which is just a fancy term for a virtual cable service like YouTube TV or Hulu + Live TV. Think of it as getting your cable channels through an app instead of a clunky box.
DAZN (The Global Connection)
For everyone outside the U.S., DAZN is the big one to know. Thanks to a massive multi-year global partnership, DAZN streams X Games live events in a ton of countries. This deal brings live competitions, archive footage, and other X Games content to a massive international audience.
And here is the best part: in most of these markets, the X Games content is on DAZN’s free tier. That’s right. All you typically need to do is register with an email address, and you can watch the live events without a paid subscription. This is a huge win for international fans. Just be sure to search DAZN’s X Games page for your specific country, as availability can vary by region.
YouTube & Twitch (The Go-To Free Streams)
The official X Games YouTube and Twitch channels are still the lifeblood of the community. Many competitions, especially during the summer events, are streamed live and completely free on these platforms. They also stream lots of content after the fact, hosting tons of highlights, medal runs, and even full replays of entire competitions.
If you are ever having trouble with the YouTube stream, hop over to the official Twitch channel. It is often used as a simultaneous backup stream, so you don’t miss a second of the action.
360vision/Xtadium (The Immersive Extras)
These are your bonus content options. Ever wanted to see a SuperPipe run from the rider’s point of view or get a 360-degree look at the Slopestyle course? Apps like 360vision and Xtadium sometimes offer cool multi-camera angles and immersive 180° and 360° VR experiences.
Just to set expectations, these are complements to the mainstream, not replacements. They are a fun way to get a different perspective on the action, but the primary competition feed will be on the platforms we mentioned above.
Broadcast & Streaming by Region
Before you lock in your plans, remember to always double-check the official ‘How to Watch’ page onX Gamesfor the specific event you are watching. Rights can shift from Aspen to Ventura to Osaka, so don’t forget to refresh that page.
United States
Your primary destination for the full and live digital stream of events likeAspen 2025 is The Roku Channel. For selected primetime blocks on traditional TV, tune into ESPN/ABC with your cable or vMVPD subscription. And for 24/7 classic content, the X Games TV channel inside Roku is your spot.
Canada
Your first choice should be DAZN, where you can likely catch the live streams for free just by signing up with an email. The official YouTube and Twitch channels are also great options that are usually available in Canada.
UK & Ireland
DAZN is also your official home for live X Games action, again on their free-to-access tier. The simulcasts on YouTube and Twitch are solid backups. Just be prepared for some late nights or early mornings when the events are live from the U.S. – or plan to catch the full replays the next day.
Europe (Major Markets)
DAZN’s free tier is widely available across many European countries, making it the easiest way to tune in. For events hosted in different time zones, likeX Games Osaka, the official streams may also be available on the X Games TV FAST channel via Roku, so it is worth checking if that’s active in your country. Otherwise, YouTube is a reliable global bet.
Australia & New Zealand
To our friends down under, we know the time zones can be brutal. Your best bet is to check DAZN for local availability, but the official YouTube and Twitch streams are often accessible. Honestly, your secret weapon might be the full-event replays posted to YouTube the next day – you can watch the entire competition spoiler-free over breakfast.
Asia (Japan/SEA) & Middle East
For X Games Osaka, the event was streamed live on the X Games TV channel via Roku, in addition to the host broadcaster in Japan. For other events, your go-to options will be your local DAZN page and the official YouTube channel.
Live vs. Replays vs. Highlights
There are different watching options available for both fans and punters. For the latter, your best option is streaming live, but for fans, you can watch highlights and replays too!
Live Windows
These are the scheduled, real-time broadcasts you don’t want to miss. The official event schedule will list the exact live blocks for each day, covering everything from qualifiers to the finals. Some competitions are digital-only (streaming on platforms like Roku, DAZN, or YouTube), while others will also get a featured spot in a set window on ESPN or ABC.
Full Replays (VOD)
Missed the live show because, you know, life happened? Full-event replays (Video on Demand, or VOD) are usually posted on the same platform that streamed the event live. DAZN posts on-demand content in supported markets, and the X Games YouTube channel is fantastic when it comes to uploading full competitions, usually just hours after they finish.
Highlights & 24/7 FAST
If you need a quick option, you’ll find short highlight clips and medal runs all over the X Games social media channels. But for a more inclusive experience, flip on the X Games TV FAST channel on Roku. It has a continuous loop of legendary moments, interviews, and archival footage all year long.
Devices & TV Setup
Whether you are working during the X Games race days isn’t an issue; you can catch the race using any smart device or TV.
Casting & Mirroring
If, for some reason, your TV doesn’t have the right app, you can almost always cast the stream from your phone. Just open the stream in the app on your phone (like YouTube or DAZN), tap the little icon that looks like a TV with a Wi-Fi signal, and select your TV. As long as both devices are on the same Wi-Fi network, the video will pop up on your big screen.
Mobile & Desktop
And of course, you can always watch directly in your web browser at XGames.com or on the official apps for YouTube, Twitch, and DAZN on your phone, tablet, or computer. This is perfect for keeping an eye on the action at work (we won’t tell) or for running a second-screen experience.
Pricing, Free Options & Trials
Do you need money to watch X Games live? Not necessarily.
Free Routes
The shift in broadcasting strategy was made specifically to reach more fans without a paywall.
Internationally, many live streams on DAZN are free
Globally, the streams on the official YouTube and Twitch channels are always 100% free
In the U.S., the main live event streams on The Roku Channel are free, and the 24/7 X Games TV FAST channel with all the archival content is also completely free
Pay-TV/vMVPD
The only time you’ll really need a paid subscription is if you want to watch the specific broadcast windows on ESPN or ABC in the U.S. and you don’t already have a cable package. That is when you’d need a subscription to a service like YouTube TV or Hulu + Live TV to get those channels.
FAST vs Premium
So what is the difference between the FAST channel and the main live stream? The FAST channel (X Games TV) is awesome for catching up, seeing classic moments, and getting hyped, but it’s not the live show. The Premium live streams on Roku, DAZN, or ESPN are like being at the concert itself – you see every single run, live as it happens.
Schedule & Time Zones
Try not to miss out on any games due to uncertainty about the time zones. Well, here are some useful tips on how you can keep up:
Find Your Start Times
The most important link to bookmark for any X Games event is the official ‘How to Watch’ page on XGames.com for that specific stop (e.g., the Aspen page, the Ventura page). It has the full, detailed schedule with exact start times for every competition. Put them in your calendar so you don’t miss anything.
Local vs Venue Time
Pay attention to the time zone!Winter X Gamesin Aspen typically run on U.S. Mountain Time (MT), while an international stop like Osaka lists its times in Japan Standard Time (JST). The good news is that the schedule on XGames.com usually auto-adjusts to your local time zone, but it’s always smart to double-check so you don’t tune in an hour late.
Programming Shifts
Action sports are often at the mercy of Mother Nature. High winds, heavy snow, or rain can cause delays or schedule changes. On event days, keep an eye on the official X Games social media feeds. They are the best place for real-time updates on any programming shifts.
Troubleshooting & Stream Quality
Streaming live games sometimes comes with certain challenges, which can be frustrating if you don’t know how to deal with them.
Buffering/Quality Dips
A stream freezing during a gold medal run is the ultimate nightmare. Here are a few quick fixes to try:
If you can, plug your TV or streaming device directly into your router with an Ethernet cable. A hard-wired connection is almost always more stable than Wi-Fi.
Close out other apps or devices on your network that might be hogging bandwidth (like large downloads or other video streams).
If one stream is failing (like YouTube), immediately try the backup. The official Twitch channel is usually a solid alternative.
Access Issues & Geo
Getting a ‘not available in your country’ error? That is a geo-block. Don’t panic. It just means you are trying to watch on the wrong platform for your region. Go back to the official ‘how to watch’ page for the event and find your country’s licensed broadcaster. It is also best to avoid using VPNs, as they may violate the terms of service for some platforms.
Audio/Video Sync
If the audio and video are out of sync, the oldest trick in the IT playbook usually works: pause the stream for about 10 seconds, then press play again. This allows the feed to re-sync. If that doesn’t work, try restarting the app or switching to a different device. For feeds like 360vision, make sure you are using the most updated version of the app.
Accessibility, Languages & Captions
Modern technology has ensured that you can stream in your local language. Alternatively, if that isn’t possible, you can turn on captions or subtitles. Isn’t that impressive?
Captions/CC
Most of the major platforms offer closed captions. Look for the ‘CC’ icon or a subtitles option in the video player settings on Roku, YouTube, or DAZN. Availability can sometimes vary depending on the specific live feed, but it is usually there for those who need or prefer it.
Alternate Commentary
The commentary you hear will depend on the feed you are watching. The U.S. linear broadcasts on ESPN and ABC will have their dedicated network commentary team. International platforms like DAZN or the global YouTube stream will typically carry the English-language world feed commentary that is produced for all markets.
High-Contrast & Screen Readers
To improve your viewing experience, you can use the built-in accessibility options on your TV, streaming device, or phone. Features like high-contrast mode, text-to-speech, and screen readers are part of the operating system and can help make navigating the apps and menus easier.
Second-Screen & Replays
Features like second-screen and replays exist to optimize how you watch X Games live. Here is the breakdown:
Multiscreen Workflow
Want to get the full, immersive experience? This is how the pros do it. Get the main competition feed up on your big-screen TV. Then, use your phone or tablet as a second screen. You can have the live start lists and trick-by-trick scoring open in a browser while you follow the instant highlights and fan reactions on social media. It is the best way to catch every single detail and feel like you are right there in the action.
Spoiler Alert
If you can’t watch live and are planning to catch the replay, you need a spoiler-control strategy. The moment the event starts, go on a social media blackout. Mute keywords like X Games, XGamesAspen, and the names of the top athletes on your social apps. Replays are usually posted pretty quickly on YouTube or the platform that aired the event live, so you won’t have to stay in the dark for long.
What to Track
To really follow the drama of a competition, keep a close eye on the best-run scores. The magic often happens on the third and final run, especially in events like Big Air and Skate Street. That is when an athlete has one last chance to go for broke, and you’ll see them either play it safe to secure a podium spot or risk it all for the gold. It is pure drama.

I'm in Europe, and the YouTube stream says it's blocked. What's the deal?
This usually happens because of media rights. If you are outside the U.S., your best bet is to go to DAZN first. They have a huge multi-year global deal to stream the X Games, and in most countries, it is on their free tier. The YouTube stream is often a backup or for regions where DAZN isn't the main partner, so always check DAZN first.
I missed the live finals because of the time difference. How long until I can watch a full replay?
You won't have to wait long or dodge spoilers for days! Full-event replays are usually posted very quickly, often within hours of the competition ending. The best place to look is the official X Games YouTube channel, which is full of replays and highlights. The platform that aired it live (like DAZN) will also typically have it available on demand.
