With the 2026 World Series of Poker main event just over a week away, ESPN and the WSOP have officially unveiled their comprehensive broadcast schedule, marking the highly anticipated return of their longtime partnership.
ESPN is set to deliver more than 100 hours of action from this year’s no-limit hold’em world championship. It’ll kick off with ESPN+ coverage from July 2-13 and three days of main event final table coverage from Aug. 3-5. The final nine will make their debut on ESPN2. The action then switches to ESPN’s flagship network for the final two days, as play continues until a champion is decided.
“Poker’s biggest stage belongs on ESPN,” said ESPN Vice President of Programming & Acquisitions Ashley O’Connor. “We’re excited for the return of bluffs, bad beats, and WSOP championship moments to be back on ESPN this summer.”
The coverage plan this year also includes edited episodes laying out the key storylines from the main event, which will air on July 21, July 28, and Aug. 10 on ESPN2.
