Bringing the Global Games to a New Global Stadium -- YouTube

In 2008, we began showing clips of the Beijing Games. In 2010, we provided archival content of past Winter Games. This year, we’re taking it one step further by bringing the world’s largest sporting event to the world’s biggest stage and we’re doing it live.

New Places 
For the first time in history, the Summer Games will be live-streamed in HD through YouTube: 

  • United States: YouTube will power NBC’s online video experience on NBCOlympics.com and viewers can watch any event live. You can also access pre-game clips on the NBC Olympics YouTube channel
  • 64 Territories: Millions of Olympic fans from across 64 territories in Asia and Sub-Saharan Africa will have a chance to watch the games live from London on the International Olympic Committee’s (IOC) YouTube Channel at www.youtube.com/olympic

  • Brazil: In partnership with ESPN Brasil, Brazilians can tune in for behind the scenes content on youtube.com/londres360, while watching Olympic footage on www.youtube.com/olympic
New Perspectives
Just bringing you the Games isn’t enough. We want to immerse you in the action by offering full coverage of the US Team’s experience, including interviews with athletes, tips from coaches and an insider’s look of the success stories from the Games. US viewers can watch all of the behind the scenes footage on youtube.com/TeamUSA.
