Foxtel Group’s landmark AFL rights deal – commencing in 2025 – will usher in a new era of Aussie Rules football broadcasting as the company prepares to supercharge its coverage of the game.

With the introduction of Super Saturday Live, Fox Footy, on Kayo Sports and Foxtel, will be the only place to watch AFL live for at least the first eight rounds of the season nationally, and the first 15 rounds in Victoria – all ad-break free during live play and in 4K.

As part of the new deal, Fox Footy will also broadcast every single match of the home and away season with dedicated Fox Footy expert commentary teams, Fox Footy innovative graphics, and premium technology. It will also offer no ads after every goal.

The Fox Footy commentary team includes Premiership champions Jason Dunstall, Jonathan Brown and David King along with other experts such as Nathan Buckley, Garry Lyon, Eddie Betts and more.

Kicking off with the show-stopping spectacle in Las Vegas, Fox League will continue to grow the game at home and abroad with coverage of every single match from the Rugby League Las Vegas Festival in 2025 live and ad-break free during play. This includes the quadruple-header taking place at Allegiant Stadium with two NRL matches, a Super League clash and an international showdown featuring the Australian Jillaroos.

Ashes Cricket will anchor both ends of 2025 starting with the Australian vs England Women’s series in January/February and culminating with the Australian Men’s side up against the old enemy with a Test Series starting next November.

Fans can continue to catch every match of the Suncorp Super Netball Season along with Formula 1, Supercars, MotoGP, Main Event Boxing, UFC, Golf, AFLW, NRLW, NFL, NHL, NBL, Surfing and plenty more, live, and on-demand, on Foxtel and Kayo Sports.

Executive director, commercial sport, Rebecca McCloy said: “Our sport offering is unrivaled and in 2025, we are turbocharging our coverage of all of your favourite Australian sport. More analysis from our experts, more games in 4K and more innovations to bring you closer to the action, all year round, means more value for your Foxtel and Kayo Sports subscriptions.

“As a home-grown sports and entertainment business, we have developed a reputation for partnering with leading and emerging sporting codes to grow Australia’s participation in, attendance at, and viewing of sport. Our investment in our broadcast partnerships not only contributes directly to grassroots programs but enable the growth of our sporting partners here and across the world.”

Entertainment

Alison Hurbert-Burns, commissioner and executive director, entertainment content, Foxtel Group said: “2025 is shaping up to be a bumper year of television and we’re proud to bring a diverse and high-quality content line up to our customers. From compelling local Originals to the most anticipated international series, we offer an incredible range of drama, comedy, lifestyle, reality and movies across our platforms.”

In addition to the BINGE Original film How To Make Gravy produced by Warner Bros. International Production Australia premiering on Dec 1, highlights for new Australian Original dramas coming to screen in 2025 include The Last Anniversary, the adaptation of the critically acclaimed novel by Australian author Liane Moriarty, produced by Made Up Stories and Blossom Films, and Mixtape, a series adapted from the popular novel by Jane Sanderson and produced by Aquarius Films which promises to take viewers back in time to that intoxicating feeling of first love, starring Australian actress Teresa Palmer and British actor Jim Sturgess.

Returning Originals include the third season of courtroom drama anthology series The Twelve produced by Warner Bros. International Production Australia and Easy Tiger with Sam Neill reprising his role as Brett Colby as he grapples with a cold case murder trial set in Margaret River, WA, and the second season of dramatic comedy series Strife produced by Made Up Stories and starring Asher Keddie as Eve, publisher of a women’s magazine attempting to navigate work and life and all that comes in between.

New unscripted series Billion Dollar Playground will premiere in 2025, a new Original format produced by Ronde Media that reveals a world of boundless luxury through the lens of a team of service experts who tackle the high-stakes demands of the ultra-rich while embracing the mantra, “if it’s legal, make it happen”, as well as the third season of Real Housewives of Sydney produced by Matchbox Pictures which promises more glitz and glamour.

Additionally, lifestyle series Selling Houses Australia produced by Warner Bros. International Production Australia will return with hosts Andrew Winter, Wendy Moore, and Dennis Scott, helping homeowners transform their properties as they prepare to put them on the market, as well as fan favourite The Great Australian Bake Off produced by BBC Studios Productions with Rachel Khoo, Darren Purchese and Natalie Tran returning alongside a new, yet-to-be-named host, helping a new batch of amateur bakers bring their culinary sensations to our screens.

In 2025, Foxtel Group will be the exclusive home of premium drama direct from Peacock in the US and Sky in the UK, meaning Foxtel and BINGE will be the only places to watch the highly anticipated thriller series Day of the Jackal starring Eddie Redmayne as a highly elusive lone assassin, drama series Lockerbie: A Search for Truth starring Colin Firth which delves into the tragic 1988 terrorist attack in Britain, All Her Fault starring Australian actress Sarah Snook and Devil In Disguise: John Wayne Gacy based on the infamous American serial killer, and The Paper which is a continuation of The Office (US) and set in that same fictional world.
