Star Sports Network, the official broadcaster of the Premier League in India, has announced a groundbreaking upgrade for football enthusiasts across the country. For the first time, the 2024/25 Premier League season will be broadcast in 4K resolution on Indian linear television, offering viewers an unprecedented level of clarity and immersion as they follow the excitement of the top-tier English football league.
Starting August 17, fans can experience the thrill of the Premier League in stunning 4K resolution exclusively on Star 4K. The season opener will feature a much-anticipated clash between Manchester United and Fulham at 12:30 am IST, setting the stage for this historic broadcast. The first weekend of the new season will also see other high-stakes matches aired in 4K, including Ipswich Town vs. Liverpool and the eagerly awaited showdown between Chelsea and Manchester City.
Star 4K, which made its debut earlier this year during TATA IPL 2024, will be available exclusively as a value-added service (VAS) on Airtel Xstream and TATA Play Binge+. Current subscribers and new 4K adopters are encouraged to contact their DTH providers to access this premium service.
Throughout the season, Star 4K will selectively broadcast matches featuring the ‘Big 6′ teams—Manchester United, Manchester City, Chelsea, Liverpool, Arsenal, and Tottenham—ensuring that fans of these iconic clubs can enjoy their games in unmatched detail and with enhanced audio quality.
Since its launch, Star 4K has revolutionized the viewing experience of major sports events, including the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2024, Wimbledon 2024, and the Tamil Nadu Premier League 2024. This latest milestone with the Premier League underscores Star Sports’ commitment to delivering cutting-edge sports content to Indian audiences.
Beyond the Premier League, Star 4K has also expanded its offerings by featuring the 4K TV premieres of blockbuster Bollywood movies like ‘Brahmastra’ ‘Tanhaji: The Unsung Warrior’, and ‘83’, further enhancing the channel’s value proposition.
In addition to Premier League action, Star 4K will also broadcast an exciting lineup of upcoming sports events, including the Caribbean Premier League, ICC Women’s T20 World Cup 2024, and the much-anticipated Pro Kabaddi League Season 11.
By bringing the Premier League in 4K to Indian viewers, Star Sports is once again setting a new standard for high-quality sports broadcasting, ensuring that football fans can enjoy every moment of the action in the most vivid and immersive way possible.
