To watch the NRL Vegas Round, you’ll use the usual NRL broadcasters (Fox/Kayo/Channel 9 in Australia), Fox Sports in the US, and Watch NRL or local rights partners if you’re overseas.

How to Watch NRL Vegas (2026)

Quick Scoop

  • In the USA : Games are on Fox Sports network (FS1/FS2; some listings note Fox Sports 2 for all three matches) and available via Watch NRL for streaming.
  • Worldwide : If your country has NRL rights, you can usually watch via that pay TV or streaming partner; otherwise, Watch NRL is the official international OTT option.

Where to Watch – By Region

Australia

You’ve got the most options if you’re watching from Aus.

  • Foxtel (Fox League / Fox Sports)
    • Shows all three Vegas games live from 11:00 AM AEDT on Sunday 1 March.
  • Kayo Sports
    • Streams every match live; this is the easiest purely-streaming option if you don’t have a satellite/cable box.
  • Channel 9 / 9Now
    • Airs the main NRL event (Bulldogs vs Dragons) free-to-air from around 3:30 PM AEDT.

Example Aussie setup:

Foxtel or Kayo on the TV from 11:00 AM for Hull KR vs Leeds, keep it rolling through Knights vs Cowboys, and then Channel 9 on the big screen for Bulldogs vs Dragons if you want it free-to-air.

United States

If you’re actually in Vegas or elsewhere in the States, here’s how to tune in.

  • Fox Sports network
    • Coverage via FS1/FS2 (sources note the games carried on Fox Sports 2, with match allocations like FS2 for the early games and FS1 for Bulldogs vs Dragons depending on the schedule).
  • Streaming via US services
    • Access Fox Sports through providers that carry FS1/FS2 (e.g., typical US live-TV streaming bundles) and log into the Fox Sports app with your TV credentials.
  • Watch NRL
    • Official global streaming service that works in the US if you prefer a dedicated NRL platform rather than US TV bundles.

Example US setup:

Use a live-TV streaming service (or cable/satellite) that includes FS1/FS2, then watch through the Fox Sports app or directly in the provider’s app.

New Zealand, UK, and Elsewhere

If you’re outside Australia and the US, you’ll generally fall into one of two camps.

  • New Zealand
    • Sky Sport NZ and Sky Sport Now carry NRL games, including the Vegas fixtures.
  • Rest of World
    • Either:
      • Your local sports broadcaster (e.g., European pay-tv sports channels that hold NRL rights), or
      • Watch NRL , which is specifically built to stream NRL to fans outside Aus/NZ.

If you’re travelling, some guides recommend using a VPN to log into your usual home streaming services, but you must still respect each platform’s terms and any geo-restrictions.

Mini FAQ (Forum-Style)

Some guides say yes if you connect to an Australian server and log into your usual service, but you still need to follow the streaming platform’s terms and conditions.

It’s a proper Premiership round , so results count on the ladder.

In Australia, the Bulldogs vs Dragons match is free on Channel 9 / 9Now , while other regions sometimes offer short free trials on their sports streaming services.

TL;DR:
If you’re in Aus, turn on Fox League/Kayo (all games) or Channel 9/9Now (final game). If you’re in the US, use Fox Sports or Watch NRL. Everywhere else, go Watch NRL or your local NRL rights broadcaster.
