Newcastle United Football Club and Endeavor Streaming unveil global streaming service

Premier League football club Newcastle United has selected Endeavor Streaming to deliver its direct-to-consumer streaming offering, bringing its global fanbase even more live action and driving deeper fan engagement.

Fans will be able to stream live coverage of Newcastle United’s upcoming pre-season friendlies and exclusive content such as player interviews, highlights, full match replays and original documentaries. All pre-season games are available to stream via pay per view, with The Mags and Mags+ members receiving exclusive discounts on the Pre-Season Match Pass.

Starting with a clash against Championship side Hull City on Saturday July 27, the service will also stream live coverage of Newcastle United’s tour of Japan as part of the J. League International Series 2024, in preparation for the 2024/25 Premier League season.

The Magpies will face Urawa Red Diamonds (July 31) and Yokohama F Marinos (August 3) in Japan, before returning home to St. James’ Park to open the Sela Weekender against Spanish LaLiga side Girona FC (August 9). The Sela Cup will be up for grabs on August 10 with the women’s team facing European opposition AC Milan Women, before the men’s team defend the Sela Cup against Stade Brestois. Members will also have access to a select number of Newcastle United Women, U21 and U18 fixtures during the season.

Fans will be able to stream programming via a brand new web application, powered by Endeavor Streaming’s Vesper platform. The service will also be available within the NewcastleUnited.com website and the official NUFC iOS and Android apps.
