Mumbai: Star Sports Network, the official broadcaster of the Premier League, has announced that the 2024/25 season will be broadcast in stunning 4K definition for the first time on Indian linear television. This marks a momentous leap for football viewing audiences in India, offering fans unparalleled clarity and immersion as they cheer on their favourite teams in the top tier of English football.
Starting from 17 August, Premier League fans can watch the new season in 4K resolution on Star 4K. The opening fixture, Manchester United vs. Fulham at 12:30 am, will kick off the broadcast. The first game week will also include Ipswich Town vs. Liverpool and Chelsea vs. Manchester City on Sunday.
Star 4K is available exclusively as a value-added service (VAS) on Airtel Xstream and TATA Play Binge+. Current and potential 4K users should contact their DTH providers to access this service.
Throughout the season, Star 4K will broadcast selective matches featuring the 'Big 6' teams—Manchester United, Manchester City, Chelsea, Liverpool, Arsenal, and Tottenham. Fans of these legendary clubs can look forward to experiencing their games in crystal-clear 4K, with four times better picture quality and a highly enhanced audio experience.
Star 4K first made its debut during TATA IPL 2024, and since then, it has elevated the viewing experience of major tournaments such as the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2024, Wimbledon 2024, Women’s Asia Cup 2024, Tamil Nadu Premier League 2024, and BGMI Masters Series Season 3. This new milestone with the Premier League further underscores Star Sports' commitment to providing state-of-the-art sports content for fans across India.
In addition to the Premier League, Star 4K will also feature a stellar lineup of upcoming sports events, including the Caribbean Premier League, ICC Women’s T20 World Cup 2024, and the much-awaited Pro Kabaddi League Season 11. Additionally, Star 4K recently elevated the viewer experience by hosting the 4K TV Premieres of several blockbuster Bollywood movies, including Brahmastra, Tanhaji: The Unsung Warrior, and 83. This highlights the service’s dedication to delivering premium content and further strengthens its value proposition and offerings.
