You can watch the Emmys on a major TV network in the US plus its companion streaming app, and there are usually a few solid options for cord-cutters as well.

2025 Emmys – Where to Watch

For the most recent ceremony (2025), here’s how it worked in the US:

  • Broadcast live on CBS on traditional TV.
  • Streamed live on Paramount+ with the premium (ad‑free) tier, which includes the live CBS feed.
  • The cheaper Paramount+ “essential” tier did not carry the live Emmys but offered on‑demand access afterward.

Many cable‑replacement services that carry CBS (like YouTube TV, Hulu + Live TV, etc.) could also show the Emmys via their local CBS channel, depending on your market.

2026 Emmys – Early Info

Looking ahead, the 2026 Primetime Emmys (78th Emmy Awards) are set to be:

  • Date: Monday, September 14, 2026.
  • US home: Airing on NBC , live coast‑to‑coast.
  • Streaming: Also live on Peacock , NBC’s streaming service.

So, if your post “emmys where to watch” is meant to be current and future‑facing, you’ll want to highlight CBS/Paramount+ for the latest past show (2025) and NBC/Peacock for the upcoming 2026 telecast.

Quick global note

The Television Academy keeps an updated “where to watch” page that lists international channels (e.g., Canada on CTV, India on JioHotstar, various European and Asia‑Pacific outlets) for the Emmys each year, plus streaming details and red‑carpet coverage.

If you’re writing a “Quick Scoop” style post, you can safely summarize it like this:

In the US, watch the Emmys on the year’s host network (CBS in 2025, NBC in 2026) or stream via its premium streaming partner (Paramount+ or Peacock); abroad, check the Television Academy’s official “Where to Watch” page for your country’s broadcaster and time.
