The FIFA World Cup broadcast rights are on the move.

TVNZ have picked up the exclusive rights for the 2026 edition of the tournament, with All Whites matches and select fixtures free to air.

However, in order to watch all 104 games across the tournament, consumers will need to purchase an event pass on TVNZ+, a first-time offer for the broadcaster.

D'Arcy spoke to current NZ Golf CEO and former Spark Sport CEO Jeff Latch to ask if TVNZ can make this work, what this could mean for the future of TVNZ and what he thinks they may have paid for these rights.
