DAZN, the world’s leading sports entertainment platform, announced its entry into the Greek market through a landmark commercial partnership with Antenna Group, the international media, content and entertainment organisation.

The deal, signed ahead of this summer’s FIFA Club World Cup 2025, sees Antenna and DAZN jointly broadcast all 63 games of the tournament across its channels to fans in Greece. The collaboration will deliver localised commentary for all 63 matches, enhanced highlights and premium shoulder content, ensuring Greek fans get a best-in-class viewing experience. Additionally, up to 15 matches will be broadcast on nationwide FTA ANT1 as well as on antenna.gr, while all matches will be also available to stream for free on DAZN’s platform in Greece.

The partnership lays the foundation for broader joint ventures between DAZN and Antenna Group– spanning additional sports rights both in Greece and internationally, co-branded entertainment and sports bundles across Antenna’s leading channels and streaming platforms. The parties have entered into a multi-year contract, designating ANT1+ as the exclusive distributor of DAZN in Greece.

Greek fans will soon have seamless access to DAZN’s world-class multi-sport content already enjoyed by more than 300 million viewers globally. This includes NFL Game Pass, an unrivalled schedule of boxing featuring events from Riyadh Season, Queensberry Promotions and Matchroom, as well as FIBA’s Courtside 1891, LIV Golf+, WTA and ANT1+’s broad selection of Greek entertainment, international movies and series, along with premium sports such as F1, UEFA Europa League and UEFA Conference League.

Shay Segev, CEO of DAZN Group, said: “We are incredibly excited to partner with Antenna Group – a leading international media, content and entertainment organisation. Their unrivalled reach, local expertise and entertainment excellence make them the perfect partner as we bring DAZN’s global sports offering to Greek fans. Together, we will deliver an exceptional experience, starting with the FIFA Club World Cup 2025 and building towards much more.”

Henning Tewes, CEO of Antenna Group, said: “We are thrilled to partner with DAZN to bring Greek sports fans unparalleled access to premium global sports content. This collaboration, starting off with the FIFA Club World Cup, marks a new era of sports entertainment in Greece. Together, we are committed to delivering a world-class viewing experience that combines the best of localised expertise and international sports excellence.”

April Stallings, Charitable Gaming and Creators Community Manager at Make-A-Wish International, commented: “Many of our wish children use gaming as a lifeline to stay connected during their illness.  We want the games industry to become more aware of how they can help grant wishes and why we need them – and that requires the kind of expertise we know Raptor PR can provide.  Raptor PR brings deep expertise in gaming and strategic communications making them a natural partner to help us achieve our global mission.

Our goal is to spark a broader movement, encouraging the games industry to embrace its potential as a force for good and give back in meaningful, sustained ways.”
