Live sport in 2019 for venues has never been stronger. Kicking off with giant winter codes of AFL, NRL and Super Rugby, Foxtel has secured the rights for two of the biggest international sporting events of the year, the ICC Cricket World Cup (from 30 May) and the Rugby World Cup (from 20 September). After that, we roll into the summer of cricket with every ball of the summer live on the brand new dedicated Fox Cricket channel.
2019 also presents an exhilarating year for combat sports with monthly UFC pay-per-views featuring stars such as Jon Jones, Amanda Nunes and Australia’s very own Rob Whittaker and Alex Volkanovski. For the first time ever, Heavyweight Boxing Superstar Anthony Joshua will be fighting in the U.S. at a venue-friendly time on Sunday 2 June.
