The European Handball Federation’s flagship event will be shown in 114 countries and territories around the globe
Live coverage of the Men’s EHF EURO 2022 will be screened to a global audience as broadcasters from around the world commit to showing the drama as it happens from the five venues in Hungary and Slovakia between 13 and 30 January.
The first of the 65 matches throw off on Thursday and all 24 participating nations have dedicated broadcasters responsible for beaming back matches live to their legion of supporters watching back home.
In total 114 countries and territories around the world will screen the matches meaning the championship is on course to be the most-watched in history – beating the cumulative audience of 1.65 billion that tuned in for the Men’s EHF EURO in 2016.
The interest in the competition goes way beyond the teams taking part, with matches also being broadcast in Asia, North America, South America and Oceania. Matches will also be streamed on EHFTV, subject to geo-blocking restrictions.
EHF Secretary General Martin Hausleitner said: “Once again we go into our flagship national team event with the strong support of broadcasters who will be helping us spread handball far and wide for the next three weeks.
“It goes without saying that we are looking forward to seeing a high quality of television production that will match the level of play on the court.”
