Optus Sport is thrilled to announce Hisense, Hungry Jack’s, TAB and Ford as partners and sponsors for their upcoming coverage of UEFA EURO 2024™. 

From June 15, Optus Sport subscribers will be able to watch the biggest teams and the best players from across Europe, as 24 teams compete in a bid to lift the Henri Delaunay Cup and be crowned champions when the final is played on Monday, July 15 (AEST) – with every match live and exclusive on Optus Sport. 

Complementing the on-screen action, brands are set to connect with football fans through Optus Sport’s holistic commercial offering, with seamless integration across live studio hosting, ancillary programming, live and Video On-Demand (VOD) match streaming across a highly engaged ecosystem. 

Howard Rees, Head of Optus Sport, said: “We are thrilled to be working with some amazing brands across this tournament.  

“We know what these huge international tournaments mean to football fans and how invested they will be throughout the coming weeks.

“We are delighted that our broadcast partners and sponsors have shared our excitement for the tournament and will be able to experience firsthand how powerfully football connects with communities across Australia.” 

Last month, Optus Sport partnered with VIDAA TV to launch and make the Optus Sport app natively available on Hisense’s range of Mini-LED TVs, giving Optus Sport subscribers faster and more seamless access to the world’s best football.  

This made it the ideal time for Hisense to expand its activity further, becoming a broadcast partner for Optus Sport’s broadcast of UEFA EURO 2024™ 

Gideon Lui, Head of Marketing, Hisense ANZ, said: “As proud sponsors of the UEFA EURO 2024, we are thrilled our customers will have the very best viewing experience via Optus Sport.

Andrew McCallum, Marketing Director, Hungry Jack's, said: “We are excited to extend our long-standing partnership with Optus Sport into the UEFA EURO 2024 tournament. 

“With Optus Sport bringing the best of European football to Australian fans, it offers a unique opportunity to be involved in major sporting event that only happens once every 4 years. 

“Hungry Jack’s are looking forward to an amazing tournament and continued relationship.” 

Luke Feddema, Head of Marketing – Brand and Campaigns, TAB, said: “We are very excited to continue our longstanding relationship with Optus Sports as their wagering partner for UEFA EURO 2024.
