How to Watch Austria's World Cup 2026 Games: TV, Stream and Worldwide
Austria are at a World Cup for the first time since 1998 — and in Austria every match is free on TV. ORF and ServusTV share the rights: ORF shows the first and third group games, ServusTV the second. In practice: Jordan and Algeria on ORF, Argentina on ServusTV. Here are the dates, channels and streams — plus where to watch in a bar or abroad.
Stand: 2026-06-06 · Austria's opener: 17 June, 06:00 CEST, vs Jordan.
Austria's three group games — dates & channels
Austria are in Group J. All times CEST:
- 17 June · Austria–Jordan · 06:00 — live on ORF (ORF 1)
- 22 June · Argentina–Austria · 19:00 — live on ServusTV
- 28 June · Algeria–Austria · 04:00 — live on ORF (ORF 1)
If Austria advance, ServusTV shows the round of 32; all other ÖFB games are on ORF.
Watching in Austria: free TV & stream
No subscription needed: ORF 1 and ServusTV are free-to-air. For streaming, the ORF games are on ORF ON and the ServusTV game on servustv.com — both geo-restricted to Austria. For atmosphere, a venue is worth it, especially for the night games against Jordan (06:00) and Algeria (04:00):
- Public viewing in Vienna — the sports bars open through the night
- Public viewing in Graz — Gösser Bräu & the Sturm VIP event
Watching abroad (for Austrians overseas)
Outside Austria, ORF ON and ServusTV are blocked — there it's the local rights-holder or the sports bar. The good news: in many time zones Austria's games fall at pleasant hours. In Southeast Asia, for instance, Jordan is at 11:00, Argentina at 00:00 and Algeria at 09:00 local — daytime rather than 3am. Where to watch as an expat:
- Where to watch in Phnom Penh (free in Cambodia on Hang Meas TV)
- Where to watch in Siem Reap
- Where to watch in Bangkok
