The 2024/25 Alpine Ski World Cup is streaming live for free on CBC Sports and its CBC Gem streaming service in Canada.

Individual events are sometimes broadcast for free in the host country. For example, Zelden will be broadcast live on Austria's ORF.

But what if you live in one of these countries and are not at home to watch the free broadcast of the Alpine Ski World Cup? Maybe you are on vacation and don't want to spend money on pay TV in another country when you can usually watch it for free at home.

We recommend subscribing to Peacock, which also provides live coverage of the NFL and EPL for only $7.99 per month with ads or $13.99 without ads.

That's because Zelden (Oct. 26-27), Gurgl (Nov. 23-24), Zemmering (Dec. 28-29), St. Anton (Jan. 11-12), Kitzbühel (Jan. 24-26), Schladming (Jan. 28-29), Saar Bach (Feb. 4-16), because all Austrian events will be broadcast exclusively on Peacock.

The three U.S. events, Killington (November 30-December 1), Beaver Creek (December 6-15), and Sun Valley (March 22-27), will split their coverage between NBC, CNBC, and Peacock.

Sling TV is the most affordable option, starting at just $40 per month, with the first month half off. Its Blue plan includes local NBC channels in many areas (double-check to make sure your channels are included before purchasing). fubo is another great option with over 150 channels.
