About ESPN America

ESPN America is the only TV channel in Europe and the Middle East exclusively dedicated to broadcasting North American sports. Not only does ESPN America show up to 15 live or as-live events every week, we show top North American sports 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

ESPN America broadcasts the biggest sports events from right across North America. We broadcast in English, and we bring American sports events to you direct from the source, exactly as they are broadcast by US networks. With so many live or as live events shown each week, watching ESPN America is like watching American sports in North America, but better!
