Where and how to watch Aussies in the WNBA in Australia

  • WNBA League Pass is the best option for Australian fans but it costs almost $60
  • ESPN will broadcast a selection of WNBA games but that also costs as part of Kayo or Fox Sports
  • The WNBA is in the midst of unprecedented growth

There is no shortage of Aussies in the WNBA and they are all must-see TV in the 2025 season.

Undoubtedly the best way to watch every game is to subscribe to WNBA TV. In Australia, WNBA TV costs $58.29 (the exchange rate is a punish at the moment)

Kayo Sports offers live streaming of the WNBA via ESPN with a set amount of WNBA games (introductory offer is $1 a month) while Prime Video will broadcast 21 exclusive games, including the 2025 Commissioner's Cup Championship.

SBS, which has carried WNBA games in the past hasn't shown any signs of broadcasting any games in 2025.

The WNBA is in the midst of an unprecedented popularity boom with viewership in 2024 the highest in its history.

  • All four US networks that televised WNBA games reported strong year-over-year audience increases in 2024.
  • ESPN averaged 1.19 million viewers, an increase of more than170% from 2023.
  • Eight games televised by US free-to-air national broadcaster CBS averaged a record high 1.1 million viewers, more than an 86% increase from 2023.
  • NBA TV delivered more than 400% growth in its viewership from 2023.
  • NBA TV had its 13 most-watched WNBA games in history, with the most watched being the Las Vegas Aces at Indiana on September 11, 2024 with 678,000 viewers.
