The Women's World Cup will be broadcast in Britain, Spain, France, Germany and Italy after governing body FIFA extended its agreement with the European Broadcasting Union , ending the threat of a blackout in Europe's top soccer nations.

In October 2022, FIFA and the EBU, which represents the continent's national media organisations, had announced an initial deal confirming that the World Cup would be broadcast free-to-air across 28 European territories."FIFA is delighted to widen the deal with the European Broadcasting Union for the transmission of the upcoming FIFA Women's World Cup ... thus ensuring maximum exposure for the tournament," Infantino said in a statement.

"This will provide a huge promotional and exposure opportunity for women's football, which is a top priority for us in line with FIFA's commitment to the long-term development of the sport."
