Peacock Streaming Package Features Phillies, Flyers, and 76ers Games on NBC Sports
A new streaming package on Peacock will let subscribers watch Phillies, Flyers, and 76ers games live on NBC Sports Philadelphia without a cable subscription for the first time. This exciting development was announced on Tuesday by the network.
To access this new package, viewers will need to live in the Philly market. The package includes a 24/7 stream of NBC Sports Philadelphia, offering not just live games but also pre- and post-game shows, as well as other exciting programs.
For those interested in subscribing, Peacock offers two subscription options: Premium for $7.99 per month and Premium Plus for $13.99 per month. The NBC Sports Philadelphia add-on comes at an additional cost of $24.95 per month. However, even with this add-on, the combined package still comes in below the cost of traditional cable subscriptions that offer live broadcasts of these teams.
It’s important to note that while this add-on provides comprehensive coverage for local sports, it does not include nationally televised games featuring the Phillies, Flyers, and 76ers.
Looking ahead, Peacock is set to expand its sports offerings by adding a package of NBA games next season, adding to its roster of 100 national games each year. The NFL has also increased its streaming partnerships, with exclusive games on platforms like Peacock, Amazon Prime Video, and ESPN+. This move by NBC is part of a larger trend in the industry as traditional cable subscriptions decline in favor of streaming options.
In addition to live sports coverage, the NBC Sports Philadelphia add-on will also include live broadcasts of college basketball and football, making it a comprehensive option for sports fans in the area.
