Where to Watch the Brewers on TV in 2026

The Brewers and Major League Baseball just announced a new TV deal.

Just in time for Opening Day, the Milwaukee Brewers, in conjunction with Major League Baseball, announced the 2026 regular season broadcast schedule and linear television distribution lineup for Brewers.TV on Thursday.

Brewers’ games this season will be produced and distributed by MLB  after broadcast rights were transferred from Main Street Sports (formerly Diamond Sports Group), which oversees FanDuel Sports Wisconsin. MLB controls local TV rights for 15 clubs.

A linear television channel finder for Brewers.TV is now available at the MLB website.


It’s time to pick your Milwaukee favorites for the year!

 

Brewers’ fans can locate where and how to watch games depending on the video distributor they utilize, including DIRECTV (Ch. 670), Xfinity/Comcast (Ch. 1263), Spectrum (Ch. 308, 319, 327 or 469), AT&T U-verse (Ch. 1743) and Fubo.

Through the Brewers production and distribution partnership with MLB, in-market fans throughout the Brewers home television territory (all of Wisconsin and Iowa, eastern Minnesota, northern Illinois and the Upper Peninsula of Michigan) can also watch all locally-distributed regular season Brewers games live or on-demand – with no blackouts – via one of three primary Brewers.TV direct-to-consumer (DTC) streaming subscription packages, available now: Brewers.TV season subscription for $99.99, Brewers.TV monthly subscription for $19.99 per month, or the MLB.TV all teams and Brewers.TV season subscription for $199.99 (including all out-of-market MLB regular season games). Fans can subscribe now at the MLB website

Brewers.TV debuts with Thursday’s Opening Day contest between Milwaukee and the Chicago White Sox, beginning with a special pregame show live from American Family Field at noon before first pitch at 1:10 p.m.

Brewers.TV will broadcast all locally-distributed Brewers regular season games this season. The club currently has 12 scheduled exclusive national broadcasts. Apple TV+ will carry two Friday night games, including April 3 at Kansas City, and June 26 against the Chicago Cubs at American Family Field.

FOX will broadcast four Saturday matchups: May 23 vs. the Los Angeles Dodgers, June 13 vs. Philadelphia, Aug. 15 at Los Angeles against the Dodgers, and Aug. 29 vs. Texas.

ESPN will feature the Brewers twice, July 1 vs. Cincinnati and Aug. 23 vs. Atlanta. Peacock will stream four Sunday contests, including July 5 at Arizona, July 12 at Pittsburgh, Aug. 2 at Los Angeles against the Angels, and Sept. 20 at Baltimore.

The Brewers previously announced that 10 broadcasts this season, including Opening Day, will be available for free on “over the air” channels in most markets throughout the state, including WITI-TV (Channel 6) in Milwaukee, through a continuing partnership with locally owned Good Karma Brands.

The team’s broadcasts in 2026 will feature elevated production elements pioneered across MLB in recent seasons, incorporating technologies typically associated with national broadcasts. These include live drone camera and wire cam – both debuting on Opening Day – a home plate dirt cam, and umpire cam coming soon.
