Broadcasters and Broadcast Territories

Just because you’re not jetting Down Under to follow the British & Irish Lions does not mean you have to miss any of the action.

The Lions 125 year anniversary tour of Hong Kong and Australia will be beamed across the world with Britain and Ireland’s elite showcased in more than 100 countries.

In total, 12 broadcasters have secured the rights to show the historic tour outside of Australia.

Warren Gatland’s men kick-off their campaign against the Barbarians in Hong Kong on June 1. They will then move to Australia to face Western Force on June 5, before taking on the Qantas Wallabies in the first Test on June 22.
