Quick Answer

The cheapest way to watch Premier Padel in 2026 is free: Red Bull TV streams the quarter-finals, semi-finals, and finals of every tournament at no cost, and the official Premier Padel YouTube channel carries the earlier rounds. For full local coverage, the main broadcasters are Movistar Plus+ (Spain), Canal+ (France), Sky/SuperTennis (Italy), beIN Sports (MENA, Turkey, Asia-Pacific, North America), Tennis Channel (select US events), and Disney+/ESPN (Latin America). The season runs 26 tournaments from February 9 to December 13, ending at the Barcelona Finals.

The Two Free Options Everyone Should Know

Start here before paying for anything.

1. Red Bull TV — quarter-finals to finals, free

Red Bull TV covers every stop of the Qatar Airways Premier Padel Tour in 2026. From the quarter-finals on, matches stream free — no subscription, no ads, no account. It runs in any browser and has apps for iOS, Android, and most smart TVs.

One underrated feature: the player lets you switch commentary languages manually, so you can watch with Spanish commentary from anywhere. For a sport whose best analysts speak Spanish, that matters.

2. Premier Padel on YouTube — everything before the quarters

The official Premier Padel YouTube channel streams qualifying and early-round matches free, plus highlights and press conferences. In countries where broadcast rights haven't been sold, the channel carries full events — the whole tournament, not just scraps.

Between the two, you can follow the entire season without spending a cent. Paid broadcasters add production polish, studio shows, and every court — but they're optional, not required.

Country-by-Country Guide

Rights holders for the 2026 season:

Region Broadcaster Notes

France Canal+ The tour's French home

USA + Canada beIN Sports + Tennis Channel Tennis Channel takes select Majors and P1s
Latin America Disney+ / ESPN From Mexico to Argentina
Everywhere else Red Bull TV + YouTube Free, no local deal needed

Premier Padel says its broadcast agreements now reach more than 190 territories. If your country isn't listed above, you're in the "everywhere else" row — which honestly is not a bad place to be, since it means everything is free.

No dedicated deal is listed for the UK in 2026, so British fans use the same free route: Red Bull TV from the quarters, YouTube before that.

Which Rounds Stream Where

The split trips up new fans, so here it is in one place:

  1. Qualifying + early rounds (Mon–Thu): Premier Padel YouTube channel, free
  2. Quarter-finals, semi-finals, finals (Fri–Sun): Red Bull TV, free — plus your local broadcaster
  3. Every round, every court: your local paid broadcaster (Movistar, beIN, Canal+, Sky), where available

The rhythm of a tournament week matters too. Early rounds run all day across multiple courts. From the quarters, everything moves to the center court and evening sessions — that's when the free Red Bull TV stream kicks in.

What's Left of the 2026 Season

The 2026 calendar packs 26 tournaments into 18 countries, and the second half of the season is loaded: the Paris Major at Roland-Garros, the Acapulco Major, and the season-ending Premier Padel Finals in Barcelona on December 13. Prize pools at Majors reach €525,000, and the racing to qualify for Barcelona makes every autumn P1 count.

Our Honest Take

Padel's TV setup is better than most fans think and worse than the sport deserves. Free quarter-finals onward on Red Bull TV beats what tennis offers — try watching an ATP quarter-final for free. But splitting early rounds to YouTube and scattering national rights across eight broadcasters means casual fans never build the habit of one destination. Until Premier Padel gets its own single app or a mainstream global partner, bookmark two tabs: Red Bull TV for the weekend, YouTube for the rest.
