Coco Gauff, Iga Swiatek, Novak Djokovic, Carlos Alcaraz and more are scheduled to compete at the 14-day tournament. Keep reading to find out when and how to watch Wimbledon 2024, even if you don't have cable. 

How and when to watch Wimbledon 2024

Wimbledon is scheduled to be played from July 1, 2024 through July 14, 2024, the last Grand Slam of the year before the Paris Summer Olympics. Singles competition begins on Day 1, while doubles competition begins on Day 3. 

You can watch Wimbledon on ABC (select weekend matches) and ESPN's family of channels. The Tennis Channel will also offer nightly coverage of Wimbledon starting at 5 p.m. ET (2 p.m. PT) most evenings, and every match will be available on ESPN+. You can stream Wimbledon on Sling TV and the platforms featured below.  

How to watch Wimbledon without cable

If your cable subscription doesn't include ABC and ESPN, or you've cut the cord with cable, you can still watch all the Wimbledon action. You can even watch Wimbledon for free without cable.

Save 50% on Sling TV: The most cost-effective way to stream Wimbledon 2024

One of the most cost-effective ways to stream Wimbledon is through a subscription to Sling TV. To watch Wimbledon and all the top-tier sports and content airing this summer, you'll need a subscription to the Orange + Blue tier.

Sling's Orange + Blue tier costs $60 per month, but the platform is currently offering 50% off the first month of any pricing tier, making the Orange + Blue tier $30 for the first month. You can cancel anytime.

Note: Because Sling TV doesn't carry CBS, you won't be able to watch CBS-aired programming like next year's NFL games on CBS. To watch these games, plus PGA golf, UEFA Champions League and more live sports, we recommend you also subscribe to Paramount+ with Showtime. Paramount+ with Showtime costs $12 per month after a one-week free trial.

Watch Wimbledon live with a digital HDTV antenna

You can also watch Wimbledon airing on network TV with an affordable indoor antenna, which pulls in local over-the-air HDTV channels such as CBS, NBC, ABC, Fox, PBS, Univision and more. Here's the kicker: There's no monthly charge.

For anyone living in a partially blocked-off area (those near mountains or first-floor apartments), a digital TV antenna may not pick up a good signal -- or any signal at all. But for many homes, a digital TV antenna provides a seriously inexpensive way to watch sports without paying a cable company. Indoor TV antennas can also provide some much-needed TV backup if a storm knocks out your cable.

This ultra-thin, multi-directional Mohu Leaf Supreme Pro digital antenna with a 65-mile range can receive hundreds of HD TV channels, including ABC, CBS, NBC, PBS, Fox and Univision, and can filter out cellular and FM signals. It delivers a high-quality picture in 1080p HDTV, top-tier sound and comes with a 12-foot digital coax cable.

This antenna is regularly priced at $70 at Amazon, but it's currently on sale for $56 with coupon.
