Netflix is taking a serious swing at becoming one of the leading sports broadcasters in the world, as evidenced by their coverage of the blockbuster bust-up between Jake Paul and Mike Tyson.

The steaming giant is also bringing the NFL Christmas Gameday to a living room near you soon.

In a groundbreaking announcement on November 17, 2024, Netflix revealed that global superstar Beyonce will headline the halftime show.

The event marks a significant milestone in the convergence of sports, entertainment and streaming services, offering fans worldwide an unmissable holiday spectacle.

Is the NFL Christmas Gameday on standard Netflix subscription or do you have to buy a pay-per-view?

This is the question a great many fans have been asking since the amazing announcement.

NFL Christmas Gameday on your standard Netflix subscription seems too good to be true — but both games ARE available on any subscription at NO EXTRA COST.

The NFL Christmas Gameday will be available to all standard Netflix subscribers at no additional cost.

A current ads-supported subscription costs £4.99-a-month (or $6.99 in the US), while a standard one, which allows you to watch on two devices at once, is £10.99-a-month ($15.49).

There is no need to purchase a separate pay-per-view package for the games or Beyonce‘s halftime show.

What we know about Beyonce’s performance

Beyonce’s performance is scheduled to take place during the halftime of the Baltimore Ravens vs Houston Texans game at NRG Stadium in Houston, Texas.

The game kicks off at 9.30 pm GMT (4.30 pm ET), making it the second of two NFL games Netflix will stream on Christmas Day.

This halftime show will be the first live performance featuring songs from Beyonce’s genre-bending and record-breaking album Cowboy Carter, adding an extra layer of excitement for music and football fans alike.

The show, produced by Beyonce’s own Parkwood Entertainment in collaboration with Jesse Collins Entertainment, is shrouded in secrecy.

In 2016, she returned to the Super Bowl stage, joining Coldplay and Bruno Mars for one of the most-watched halftime shows in history, attracting 115.5 million viewers.

“There are no live annual events, sports or otherwise, that compare with the audiences NFL football attracts.

While Netflix will be the primary platform for global viewers, the NFL is maintaining its commitment to traditional broadcasting.

In keeping with long-standing holiday traditions, the Christmas Day games will also air on broadcast TV in the competing teams’ home cities.

Additionally, US viewers can access the games on mobile devices through NFL+.
