While casual viewers of the 2024 Paris Olympics may be happy watching NBC and Peacock’s primetime recaps of the day’s biggest moments, there’s a lot more to watch, and Peacock’s comprehensive coverage of the games will feature more events than ever before. Rugby, a relatively new sport to the Games, made its debut in 2016 and is one of the first events to take place at this year’s Games (it actually starts on July 24, two days before the Opening Ceremony). Every rugby match will take place at the Stade de France in Paris, and we’ve compiled the full schedule and list of competitors so you can watch them all.

All Rugby matches will be streaming on Peacock, but if you’re hoping to watch some on TV, many will be airing on NBC, E!, USA and CNBC each day of the event.

History: July 24 – July 30
