On May 16, 2024, Pete Distad, CEO of the upcoming Venu Sports streaming service, unveiled the platform’s brand identity in both Los Angeles, CA and New York, NY. Distad expressed excitement about introducing Venu Sports as a new streaming home for sports fans outside of the traditional pay TV system. He emphasized the platform’s goal of providing a wide variety of live sports in one place using the latest technologies to engage and entertain sports enthusiasts.
Expected to launch in the fall of 2024 in the U.S., Venu Sports is a unique streaming sports service that combines the sports networks and direct-to-consumer services of ESPN, FOX, and Warner Bros. Discovery. The platform aims to cater to underserved fans by offering them a comprehensive viewing experience for every game. Updates on Venu Sports can be found on their website at www.venu.com.
Venu Sports will bring together content from major professional sports leagues and college sports to provide a wide range of sports content to cater to sports fans, especially those who are not part of the traditional pay TV bundle. Subscribers will be able to access Venu Sports directly through a new app with the option to bundle it with other services like Disney+, Hulu or Max.
