UEFA Women’s EURO 2025 kicks off Thursday 3 July, with every game live and exclusive on Optus Sport. The only catch for Aussie fans? You’ll need to be up before sunrise. With Switzerland hosting, Australian viewers face a fixed schedule of 2:00am and 5:00am AEST kick-offs across the month-long tournament.
This is the biggest event in European women’s football outside the World Cup—and Optus has secured full broadcast rights for all 31 matches. From the opening clash between Iceland and Finland, through to the final in the early hours of Monday 28 July, every game will be available to stream live, replayed, or watched on-demand across Optus Sport platforms. The full-service approach includes smart TV apps (Samsung, Sony, LG), streaming devices (Apple TV, Chromecast, Fire TV), gaming consoles, tablets, mobiles, and desktop.
The group stage features marquee fixtures from the get-go. Spain meets Portugal at 5:00am on Friday 4 July, while England face France in one of the toughest group matchups on Sunday 6 July—also at 5:00am. Quarter-finals begin Thursday 17 July, with semi-finals set for Wednesday 23 July. Australia isn’t in the mix, but there’s still plenty to follow, especially for fans tracking club favourites, international stars, and future World Cup threats.
For Optus, this is another key play in its football-first streaming strategy. With Premier League and UEFA rights already on its books, the platform continues to position itself as essential for fans who want full-match coverage and flexible access. And with replays and highlights available across all devices, there’s no need to miss out if the alarm doesn’t go off.
UEFA Women’s EURO 2025 runs from Thursday 3 July to Sunday 28 July, with every match live and on-demand via Optus Sport.
