DAZN free trial: How much does it cost, what is DAZN? We have all of the answers (Image: DAZN • EXPRESS NEWSPAPERS )
Looking to stream the latest Boxing, NFL, Rugby Union, Basketball, or any of the other dozens of sports available on DAZN?
Sadly, the DAZN free trial is no longer available in the UK, so you won’t be able to watch DAZN for free. However, there is a silver lining – DAZN offers a way to test-out its sport-focused streamer for under £1.
For those who might be new to DAZN, we’ve got everything you need to know about this Sky Sports and TNT Sports rival, which is much more affordable than its biggest rivals – even if you manage to snag the best Sky TV deal around.
Despite its slightly unusual name, DAZN has quickly risen to become one of the top streaming services for sport, with a particular focus on Boxing (and Pay-Per-View fights) in the UK. That’s not the case across all of mainland Europe, where DAZN has the rights to stream some of the biggest Premier League matches as part of its standard subscription plan.
For UK subscribers, DAZN has been the exclusive home to a number of big-name fights, including 2019’s Andy Ruiz vs Anthony Joshua, KSI vs Logan Paul, and more including major sporting events, such as the UEFA Champions League finals. This has lead to some people referring to the service as the “Netflix of Premier Sports”.
Interested in watching DAZN?
If you want to get right into the action, the good news is that you can sign up for DAZN for just £9.99 per month when you sign-up for its annual plan – saving £120 compared to a rolling one-month contract. Included in this subscription, you’ll have access to a number of Boxing fights, UEFA fixtures, motorsports, and more. However, not all fixtures are included for this flat fee – these will cost extra as a one-off Pay-Per-View (PPV) fee.
DAZN regularly offers deals on its monthly subscription, especially in the run-up to its biggest PPV fights for just 99p for the first month of your new subscription – so it’s worth keeping an eye out for offers. We’ll update this guide when the best DAZN deals change, so stay tuned if there isn’t currently a 99p promotion available…
What is DAZN?
DAZN is owned by DAZN Group, which is majority owned by Access Industries which also owns the largest stake in Warner Music Group and Deezer.
It’s a livestreaming service and allows customers access to events, both live and on demand as well as pay-per-view events. It has expanded to over 200 countries in December 2020 after originally launching in Austria, Germany, and Switzerland in 2016.
It quickly grew to become one of the major players in sports streaming sites especially boxing after it announced a landmark deal with Matchroom Boxing.
DAZN broadcasts a wide range of sports but its strength is in combat sports and regularly broadcasts the biggest fights you might have heard of including fights with Anthony Joshua and Canelo Alvarez.
DAZN also announced a 5-year deal with Misfits Boxing which is run by megastar KSI. It means you will see all DAZN KSI fights and other crossover boxing events on DAZN exclusively.
You’ll be able to watch KSI, Jake Paul and more celebrity superstars only on DAZN – a major reason to make sure you don’t miss out.

How to watch DAZN on Sky TV
The good news is if you’re a Sky TV subscriber, you can watch DAZN on the service for a monthly fee.
Sky Q subscribers can watch DAZN on Sky Channel 429, with the cost starting from £99 for an annual plan. You can also choose to pay £9.99 per month if you pay in 12 instalments or £19.99 per month for a flexible plan which you can cancel anytime.
The plan includes 50+ fights a year, IPL, women’s football and much more on DAZN 1 HD. Not everyone who has a Sky service can watch DAZN though as Sky Stream or Glass customers are unable to watch DAZN at the moment.
As well as this, existing DAZN subscribers won’t be able to watch the new channel on Sky – as it’s separate from the existing streaming subscription so make sure you’re informed. If you have been considering a Sky package as well as DAZN, you can find our best Sky deals so you can enjoy major boxing events and great TV deals.
