Live events on Netflix: WWE wrestling, awards shows, concerts, and more

Live events are included with all Netflix plans at no extra cost, so you can watch what everyone is talking about the moment it happens! Enjoy sports, stand-up comedy, award shows, and other special events streaming live on Netflix. While watching, you can rewind, pause, play from the beginning, or jump to live at any point during the livestream. They can also be downloaded or watched later.

Note: Some events may be available to watch and download for a limited time after the livestream.

You can watch live on most newer devices, including

  • Smart TVs

  • Streaming media players

  • Android phones and tablets

  • iPhone and iPad

  • Mac and Windows computers

  • Game consoles

Make sure your device is running the latest version of the Netflix app to watch live. If watching live isn't supported on your device, these events are available a few days later for you to watch anytime, like other titles.

Live events, special events or other new features may contain commercial breaks across all our plans. TV shows and movies that are not live are free of commercial breaks on ad-free experiences, but they may have other types of commercial content.

After a live event ends, commercial breaks will be removed on ad-free experiences.

Note: In some cases within ad-free experiences, ads may be present for a short amount of time after the event is live, but can be fast-forwarded through.

​Recent live events

Search for the title when it’s time to watch live or shortly after the livestream begins. Use the Remind Me feature before a live event to get notified when it starts or a new episode is available. By setting a reminder, the title will also appear in the My List section on your device when it becomes available to watch live.

Each live event may have limited audio and subtitle language availability during the livestream. After the event is live, additional audio and subtitle languages will be available (typically a few days after the livestream), just like other titles on Netflix.

You can watch Live events on most newer devices.

  • If you’re seeing a message that an app update is needed, make sure that the Netflix app and your device's operating system or firmware are up-to-date.

  • If you're getting a message that your device doesn’t support livestreaming, you’ll need to use a different device.

​

TVs, TV streaming devices, and game consoles
Make sure your device software is up-to-date. If you're not sure how to update it, check your owner's manual or contact the manufacturer.

​

Mobile phones and tablets

  • Android phones or tablets require Android OS 9 or later and the latest version of the Netflix app. Learn how to update your Android device.

  • iPhone or iPad requires iOS/iPadOS 18 or later and the latest version of the Netflix app. Learn how to update your iPhone or iPad.

    Note: You may be able to watch on a TV by connecting your mobile device with a video cable or adapter. Note that not all devices and cables are compatible.

​

Computers
You can watch live in your browser or with the Netflix app for Windows 10 and later. To make sure you have the latest browser version, see Netflix supported browsers and system requirements.

​

Not supported:

  • Chromecast 1st - 3rd generation and Ultra. (Though Chromecast with Google TV models are supported.)

  • Casting from a Chrome browser to a TV or external display.

  • Certain apps and features that cast or wirelessly mirror your mobile device's screen to a TV or external display (ex. Google Cast).

    ​

A small number of devices not listed above don't support live streaming. This is typically because the Netflix app or software on the device can't be updated to a version that supports livestreaming, or is no longer actively supported.

If you don’t have a supported device, most live events will typically be made available to watch just like other titles on Netflix a few days after the livestream. You'll keep seeing a message about your device not being able to support livestreaming until then.

Note:The title won’t always be available immediately following the livestream if your profile language settings are different from the original language of the live event. Once subtitles are complete and available in your preferred viewing language, you’ll be able to watch.
