Sports streamer will broadcast the Ballon d’Or ceremony on 26 October
DAZN will broadcast the Ballon d’Or awards ceremony live and for free to a global audience.
The Awards take place on Monday, 26 October 2026 in London, honouring the players who have defined the season thanks to their individual performance, their track record, and their conduct off the field.
Winners last year include Paris Saint-Germain and France forward Ousmane Dembélé, who won the Men’s award, and Spain and Barcelona midfielder Aitana Bonmatí, who claimed the Women’s Ballon d’Or for a record third consecutive year.
Alongside the live broadcast, DAZN will act as a Global Gold Sponsoring Partner of the Ballon d’Or, in the Sports Broadcast Services and Sports OTT Services categories.
Shay Segev, CEO of DAZN Group, said: “The Ballon d’Or is one of the most iconic events in football and a celebration of the players who inspire fans around the world. We are delighted to welcome the Ballon d’Or back to DAZN and to make it available free to fans in 200 markets globally. As the global home of sport, fans come to DAZN for some of the biggest events and best viewing experiences, and the Ballon d’Or is a perfect addition to our comprehensive football portfolio. It’s a great example of how DAZN connect fans with the defining moments of the beautiful game.”
