where to watch ucl draw

You can watch the UEFA Champions League (UCL) draw live in a few main ways, depending on where you are.
Main official options
- UEFA’s official website (uefa.com) streams the draw live worldwide for free, including the 2025–26 knockout/play‑off draws.
- The official UEFA Champions League app also shows a free live stream of the draw on mobile.
- UEFA’s official YouTube channel typically carries a free live stream of the draw.
These are the easiest “click and watch” options if you just want the draw itself.
TV and paid streams by region
- UK :
- TNT Sports (main UCL rights holder) broadcasts the draw on TV (e.g., TNT Sports 1 or 2 around 11:00 GMT).
* The draw is also available via **Discovery+ (Premium)** for subscribers.
* TNT Sports often offers a **free YouTube livestream** of the draw as well.
- USA :
- Coverage is carried by UEFA’s partners; recent draws have been shown on Paramount+ alongside the universal UEFA.com and app streams.
- Other regions :
- Local UEFA partner networks (for example, TNT Sports in the UK, other national broadcasters elsewhere) usually simulcast the draw live; exact channel varies by country but UEFA.com and the UCL app remain the fallback everywhere.
Typical timing and format
- Recent UCL knockout/play‑off draws have started around 11:00 GMT (6:00 ET) from the House of European Football in Nyon, Switzerland.
- The live show usually runs about 30 minutes , with an intro video, explanation of the rules, and then the actual draw.
Forum / watchalong vibes
If you want more of a “fan atmosphere”:
- Major football channels run YouTube watchalongs where they react to the draw in real time (for example, UCL draw explainer and live shows by CBS Sports Golazo or independent creators).
- Football forums like r/soccer on Reddit often post the official live stream link plus megathreads to chat while the draw is happening.
TL;DR:
For a clean, official feed, use UEFA.com , the UCL app , or UEFA’s
YouTube. If you’re in the UK, TNT Sports/Discovery+ also show it; in
the US, look to Paramount+ plus the UEFA platforms.
