In the United States, you can watch on Peacock (live coverage of every stage), NBC (live coverage of a few stages) or TV5Monde (French-speaking coverage of every stage).

If you dont have cable or youre just looking for more information, heres a complete rundown of all the different ways you can watch a live stream of the 2024 Tour de France in the U.S.

　　Watch the Tour de France 2024 live stream on Peacock

This is the far-and-away best option for watching the Tour de France in the United States. The reasoning isnt exactly complicated, either. If you want to watch every single stage live, and if you want to watch in English, then Peacock is the only way to do that in the U.S.

Unfortunately, theres no free trial. Fortunately, you only need the basic Premium tier to watch, and that will only cost you $6 for a month (or a slightly discounted $60 for the whole year). Thats well worth it for the Tour de France by itself, but youll also be able to watch the upcoming Summer Olympics, other live sports and hundreds of hours of TV shows and movies.

Youd be hard-pressed to find a better deal in streaming right now.

If youre intent on watching a free live stream of the Tour de France, Fubo is undoubtedly your best option. It includes NBC, which will have live coverage of a few stages, but what were really interested in here is the TV5Monde channel, a French-language channel that will broadcast each stage of the race (some may be live, some may be on a tape delay).

TV5Monde is available by itself as an add-on to Fubos main channel package, and it can be included in your free seven-day trial. Of course, you need to be OK watching in French, and this still wont get you the whole race for free (Fubo gets a bit pricey after the free trial), but its a nice option if youre dead-set on watching a few stages without paying anything.

Thats not all. If youve used up your Fubo free trial, you can also get TV5Monde through Sling TV. The French Bouquet channel packagewhich can be found through the International tab on the top of Slings websiteincludes TV5Monde and is currently available for free for your first seven days (just $15 per month after that).

If youre outside the United States, there may be some other international live-stream options available to you. But if thats not the case, you can potentially watch the race with the help of a virtual private network (VPN). Peacock, Fubo and Sling are US-only, but a VPN can hide your location and make it look like youre actually located in the US, thus allowing you to access these streaming services from abroad.

Weve compiled a list of the the best VPN services and the best VPN deals, but if youre looking for somewhere to start, NordVPN is a good place to do that. Its easily one of the top VPNs out there, plus it comes with a 30-day money-back guarantee, so you can try it out free of risk.
