Most Notre Dame football games are carried through NBC/Peacock for home games and a mix of ESPN/ABC, FOX, and conference networks for road and neutral‑site games, with a few helpful official and streaming resources that cover nearly everything.

Main ways to watch Notre Dame

  • NBC and Peacock: Notre Dame’s home games are tied to NBC, with many games simulcast or exclusively streamed on Peacock , NBC’s streaming service.
  • Cable or live‑TV streaming: Services that include NBC, ABC/ESPN, FOX, and relevant conference networks (Big Ten, ACC, etc.) will cover most road and neutral‑site games depending on the 2026 schedule announcements.
  • Official Notre Dame schedule: The athletics site and ESPN schedule page list TV information game by game once finalized, so you can check which channel or app you’ll need each week.

International viewers

  • Fighting Irish TV: Notre Dame’s own streaming service offers free live streams of home football games to fans outside the United States , in partnership with NBC Sports.
  • Access: You create a free account on Fighting Irish TV and can then watch the seven home games live if you are located abroad.

Quick example: planning a season

Imagine you’re in the U.S. and want every game: you’d grab a live‑TV streaming package that includes NBC plus ESPN/ABC and FOX, and add a paid Peacock plan for any exclusive home streams.

If you move overseas, you could drop Peacock for home games and watch those free on Fighting Irish TV, then still use a local provider or international streams for select road games depending on rights in your country.
