They are taking place from August 8-11 in Fort Worth, Texas. So, here is a full guide on how to watch the competition.
In this article, we cover the how to watch guide for both US and International fans. Moreover, here you can find the full workout schedule for all four days, including the opening and award ceremonies.
How To Watch 2024 CrossFit Games
US Viewers
It is important to know that the livestream of the 2024 CrossFit Games in the US is separated into an online portion and an exclusive one. Namely, each of the four competition days will have a period of two hours during which the competition will be exclusively streamed on the ESPN, ESPN2, and ESPN+ TV channels.
“In 2023, ESPN gave CrossFit fans access to the largest ecosystem in sports, providing exciting new ways to enjoy the Games while also inspiring many people to visit a local affiliate for the first time. The quality and reach of coverage ESPN provides is unparalleled, and we’re thrilled to partner with them to showcase the fittest athletes on Earth once again,” said Don Faul, CEO of CrossFit.
It is important to note that, apart from that two-hour window, the remainder of the 2024 CrossFit Games will be free to watch online on CrossFit Games YouTube, Website, Facebook, and Twitch.
