TNT Sports is moving its streaming service to HBO Max<\/a> in the UK and Ireland next week, and is offering a discounted \u2018saver plan\u2019 for sports fans.<\/p>\n

Customers who wish to purchase standalone online access to TNT Sports will be able to do so for \u00a325.99 a month, provided they take out a 12-month subscription. This is \u00a35 less than the currently monthly price of \u00a330.99, which will remain the same after the switch.<\/p>\n

On live television, cycling will remain on TNT Sports, as before. The move to HBO Max only affects online viewing and streaming.<\/p>\n

All existing Discovery+ subscribers will be still able to access their current package by signing in to HBOMax.com<\/a> with their same email address and password.<\/p>\n

The first live bike races shown on HBO Max will be stage four of the men\u2019s Volta a Catalunya, and the women\u2019s Ronde van Brugge (formerly the Classic Brugge-De Panne), both of which take place on Thursday.<\/p>\n

HBO Max, like TNT Sports and Discovery+, is owned by Warner Bros. Discovery (WBD) and is already live in 100 countries around the world. It is described as WBD’s “premier global streaming platform”, and also includes films and TV series.<\/p>\n

This latest switch for cycling broadcasting marks the third time the sport has changed streaming service in the UK in as many years. In late 2023, fans lamented the closure of GCN+<\/a>, a platform that offered live, advert-free racing for \u00a36.99 a month, or \u00a339.99 a year.<\/p>\n

Cycling was then moved to the Discovery+ platform, still priced at \u00a36.99 a month, before it was placed within a broader subscription package following the migration from Eurosport to TNT Sports in the UK and Ireland<\/a> in February 2025. This put the sport behind a \u00a330.99 a month paywall.<\/p>\n

Following ITV’s relinquishing of broadcast rights, this July will mark the first time in decades that the Tour de France<\/a> won’t be shown on free-to-air TV<\/a> in the UK.<\/p>\n

A survey by\u00a0Cycling Weekly\u00a0last year\u00a0<\/a>revealed that 71% of respondents said they\u00a0watched the Tour on ITV<\/a>. Of those 1,273 people, 1,120 said they would not subscribe to\u00a0TNT Sports<\/a>\u00a0to watch the race live in 2026, and almost half said they had never paid to watch cycling on TV.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"TNT Sports is moving its streaming service to HBO Max in the UK and Ireland next week, and…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":546952,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[445],"tags":[49,48,635,82],"class_list":["post-546951","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-cycling","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-cycling","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/546951","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=546951"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/546951\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/546952"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=546951"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=546951"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=546951"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
