In short: yes — DAZN does have Bundesliga rights in many countries, though where, what matches, and how much access depends heavily on your location.

What partnership exists between Deutschland’s Bundesliga and DAZN
Over recent years, Bundesliga (via the DFL) and DAZN have signed and renewed several major broadcast deals. These cover live matches, exclusive packages, conference / Sunday games, and extend through several seasons. DAZN is now positioned as one of the primary international and sometimes domestic homes for Bundesliga and 2. Bundesliga outside the DACH region (Germany, Austria, Switzerland).
Specifically:
- DAZN holds rights outside DACH: in Spain, Belgium, Portugal, Canada, etc.
- DAZN has extended its deal in Canada recently, which includes both Bundesliga and 2. Bundesliga, plus related content (highlights, shoulder programming)
- From 2025-26 through 2028-29, DAZN will have exclusive Bundesliga & 2. Bundesliga rights in Spain, including relegation play-offs and the DFL Supercup

Why DAZN’s rights vary so much — and how to tell for your area
Understanding why it’s not “DAZN everywhere gets every match” comes down to:
- Territorial broadcast rights: The league sells rights in bundles by region (country/market). One broadcaster might secure the rights in Spain, another in Germany.
- Exclusive vs shared rights: Sometimes DAZN is the exclusive home; other times it shares with TV networks or pay-TV providers.
- Packages & match types: Not every match is equally “valuable” (e.g. Sunday games, big derbies, conference format). DAZN may hold some types but not others.
- Sub-licensing & sublicence deals: In some cases, DAZN gets rights through or shares with another broadcaster.
To check for your location:
- Visit DAZN’s website for your country (or region) and check their sports/leagues list.
- Look for announcements from Bundesliga-DFL about broadcast deals for your territory.
- Search for “Bundesliga rights [your country] DAZN” — often local media report the deals.
Common FAQs about “Does DAZN have Bundesliga”
Q: If I travel, can I watch DAZN’s Bundesliga coverage? A: Probably not, due to geo-blocking. Rights are usually strict by country. If you leave your home country, you may lose access or be redirected. Some use VPNs, though that’s in a legal/contractual gray area.
Q: Are highlights available on DAZN? A: Yes — in many markets where DAZN has live rights, they also offer highlights, replays, and related content like pre/post-match analysis. But again: depends on your country.
Q: What about Sunday games or “Bundesliga Konferenz” (conference of simultaneous matches)? A: DAZN’s deals often include the “Konferenz” format for Saturdays (Germany) and full Sunday slate in many markets outside Germany. In DACH, some packages are exclusive; in other regions, Sunday/“Konferenz” are key parts of the rights.
Q: Until when are the current DAZN deals valid? A: Many current deals run until 2028-29 (for Spain, international markets). In Canada, recent renewals extend through upcoming seasons. For DACH region, rights also have renewals, but domestic rights may include shared arrangements.
If DAZN doesn’t have the rights in your country — what then?
If you discover that DAZN does not have Bundesliga where you are, you can try these alternatives:
- Check what pay-TV or streaming service owns the rights locally.
- See if there are legal streaming platforms offering the matches.
- Consider using DAZN‘s free trials (if applicable) or promotional bundles, if in markets where they do have rights.
- Follow Bundesliga’s official channels for highlights, match recaps, podcasts, or TV summaries if live access isn’t possible.
