How to Watch Serie A in Canada 2026⁄27
Serie A’s 380-match season is fully accessible in Canada through two broadcasters, each serving a different audience and language preference. Here is everything you need to know to set up your viewing before the 2026⁄27 season kicks off.
Where to Watch Serie A in Canada
There are two legitimate options for watching Serie A in Canada in 2026⁄27.
Fubo (fuboTV Canada) holds the exclusive English-language rights to Serie A in Canada. That means every one of the 380 league matches, plus Coppa Italia coverage, is available on Fubo. You can watch through the Fubo app on multiple devices or via a browser. This is the go-to option if you want complete, all-season English-language coverage without missing a single fixture.
TLN (Telelatino) carries Italian-language coverage of Serie A, broadcasting approximately three matches per week through the 2026⁄27 season. TLN is available as a traditional cable/satellite channel, and its content is also accessible via the VIVA streaming app, which is TLN’s digital platform. This is the natural choice for Italian-Canadian viewers who prefer commentary and analysis in Italian.
DAZN does not hold standalone Canadian Serie A rights for 2026⁄27. DAZN content in this context is only accessible through the Fubo Sports Pro plan bundle — see the pricing section below for details.
Pricing in Canada
All prices below are in Canadian dollars (CA$) and are based on the best available information. Always check the provider’s website for the current rate before subscribing, as prices can change.
Fubo Canada pricing:
– Sports plan: From approximately CA\(31/month. This base tier includes Serie A and is the entry point for English-language coverage of all 380 matches.
– **Sports Pro plan**: Approximately CA\)54.99/month. This upgraded tier adds integrated DAZN access on top of the core Fubo content.
Both Fubo plans are subscription-based with no long-term contract typically required; check the Fubo Canada website for any promotional rates or annual billing options.
TLN / VIVA:
TLN is carried by most major Canadian cable and satellite providers. The channel cost depends on your existing TV package — check with your provider (Rogers, Bell, Shaw/Videotron, Telus, etc.) to see if TLN is included or available as an add-on. The VIVA streaming app may offer its own subscription path; check tln.ca for current VIVA pricing.
Free or Legal Low-Cost Options in Canada
There is no free-to-air broadcast of Serie A in Canada, and no publicly funded channel carries the competition. However, there is one practical low-cost entry point:
Fubo free trial: Fubo Canada typically offers a free trial period for new subscribers. This lets you access the full Serie A catalogue, including live matches, at no cost for the trial duration. The trial length and availability can vary, so check fubo.tv/ca before signing up. Note that a payment method is usually required to start the trial.
TLN as a cable add-on: If you already have a cable or satellite TV package, TLN may be available at little or no extra cost depending on your provider’s bundle. This gives you Italian-language access to roughly three matches per week without an additional streaming subscription.
There are no confirmed free standalone streaming options for Serie A in Canada outside of these routes.
Kickoff Times in Canada
Serie A matches are played in Italy, so all kickoffs are scheduled on Central European Time (CET) or Central European Summer Time (CEST). The table below shows how the most common Serie A kickoff slots translate to Canadian local time.
| Kickoff (home) | Toronto | Vancouver |
|---|---|---|
| Sat 18:00 CET | 12:00 PM EST | 9:00 AM PST |
| Sun 18:00 CET | 12:00 PM EST | 9:00 AM PST |
Times shift by one hour for fixtures in Aug–early Oct and late Mar–May (British Summer Time).
The Saturday and Sunday lunchtime slots are generally viewer-friendly for most of Canada. However, early-afternoon midweek fixtures — which Serie A schedules occasionally, particularly for rescheduled rounds — can fall on weekday mornings in Canadian time zones, which means live viewing may require planning around work or school hours. Vancouver-based viewers face the earliest local starts, with some weekend matches kicking off at 9:00 AM PST.
Blackout and Availability Rules in Canada
Fubo holds exclusive English-language rights to Serie A across Canada, meaning there are no regional blackouts within the country from an English-language rights perspective — a subscriber in Toronto, Calgary, or Vancouver should have access to the same match catalogue.
That said, all streaming services enforce geo-blocking: your Fubo or VIVA subscription is licensed for use within Canada. If you travel outside the country, access may be restricted. Using a VPN to circumvent geo-blocks is against the terms of service of both Fubo and most streaming platforms, and providers actively work to detect and block VPN traffic. There is no guarantee that a VPN will provide access, and doing so may put your account at risk.
TLN’s cable distribution is subject to the channel lineup offered by your specific provider and your province of residence, so check availability in your area before expecting it to be included in a bundle.
